Abstract:
The invention provides a working trough and a method for maintaining a uniform temperature of a working fluid. The working trough is applied to an electrical discharge machine that performs wire cutting using the working fluid. The method for maintaining a uniform temperature of the working fluid is applied to the working trough and characterized by forming opening structures in a receiving slot of the working trough such that a spiral swirl having a predetermined height is allowed to be formed in the working fluid, thereby maintaining a uniform temperature of the working fluid in the receiving slot when a wire cutting process is performed in the working fluid by the electrical discharge machine. The disturbance of the spiral swirl also facilitates the discharge of scraps. The present invention further has an advantage of low cost.
Abstract:
A motion control system and a motion control method are provided. The motion control method includes: sending a plurality of machining commands to a second controller by a first controller at a cloud; storing the plurality of machining commands in a buffer by the second controller; and operating the machine tool according to the plurality of machining commands stored in the buffer. As such, when poor communication occurs between the first controller and the second controller, the second controller causes the buffer to send a deceleration command to the machine tool so as to cause the machine tool to operate at a reduced speed, thereby avoiding unexpected motion such as sudden shutdown of the machine tool and damage to machined products.

Abstract:
A structural topology optimization design method is provided. A structural topology optimization question is defined to determine at least one set of load and restriction condition and a parameter of lower limit of volume capacity related to a design space model. This model is divided into mesh grids for performing finite element analysis (FEA). Strain energy of each element after FEA is obtained according to the established load and restriction condition and used as a basis for calculating sensitivity of each element. A part of elements is removed or retained according to the degree of sensitivity of each element, and the structural profile and the total volume capacity and total strain energy of residual elements of the structural profile are recorded after each loop was completed. A display interface is used to sequentially show the structural profile and a relationship diagram of structural volume capacity vs structural strain energy.
