摘要:
The device includes a management and control device, which includes exploration means (103) to capture an irregular cork slab (P) within an exploration area (1) and to generate data representative of exploration parameters that include at least the contour of said slab (P), together with its position and orientation on said exploration area (1). Electronic means (18) being provided to process said data representative of the exploration parameters together with other additional parameters held in memory and/or entered by an operator, to determine processing parameters judged to be optimum for maximum yield from the slab (P), and to generate control commands to govern said automatic handling and processing apparatus in accordance with said processing parameters. The device implements an appropriate procedure.
摘要:
The present invention refers to a bending apparatus comprising a control means being configured for selecting a workpiece holding gripper, wherein means for reading information from a geometry-determined library are used, undesired grippers are excluded and a gripper is selected to be used in response of its geometrical data.

Disclosed is an information processing method comprising: acquiring, by one or more processors (30), measurements of a first surface (62) of a blank (60); acquiring, by the one or more processors (30), a digital model (34) of an object (4) that is to be produced from the blank (60); and, using the measurements of the first surface (62) of the blank (60), morphing, by the one or more processors (30), at least part of the digital model (34) such that a first surface of the digital model (70) is the same shape as the measured first surface (62) of the blank (60). The object (4) that is to be produced from the blank (60) may be an aircraft door or aircraft panel.
摘要:
In order to present a computerized system for generating and executing a sheet metal bend plan, that allows evaluation of a bending operation more effectively, a system for generating a plan is disclosed, which comprises a system for generating a plan which comprises a sequence of operations to be performed by a bending apparatus for bending workpieces comprising sheets of malleable material, the bending apparatus having a gripper for gripping a workpiece while performing a bend, said sequence of operations comprising a set of N bends for forming a finished workpiece from a stock sheet of malleable material, said system comprising: proposing means for proposing, for an mth operation within the sequence of operations, a plurality of proposed operations including a plurality of proposed bends to be performed by said apparatus; subplan means for providing a proposed subplan that accompanies each proposed bend; and generating means for generating a plan including a sequence of bends from a first bend through an Nth bend, by choosing each bend in the sequence of operations based upon the proposed bends and the proposed subplan that accompanies each proposed bend, wherein the system further comprises estimating means for estimating a cost to be associated with each proposed bend. Moreover, a respective computer is disclosed..
摘要:
Methods, manufactured parts, and computer programs for horizontally structured manufacturing. A blank (10) is selected for machining into an actual part, and a coordinate system (7) is established. A plurality of process bodies (30, 40, 50) are created in a single file (15). Each process body (40) includes a virtual blank (10) corresponding to said blank (10) and a plurality of manufacturing features (12). A virtual machining of each manufacturing feature of the plurality of manufacturing features (12) into the virtual blank (10) is implemented. Each manufacturing feature exhibits an associative relationship (13) with the coordinate system (7). Manufacturing instructions are generated to create the actual part by machining the plurality of manufacturing features (12) into the blank (10).
