A laser processing head comprises nozzle-holding means (5) for holding a nozzle in which a nozzle hole (11) is formed; condensing optical system-holding means (3) for holding a condensing optical system (2), the condensing optical system-holding means being slidably arranged in the nozzle-holding means while maintaining sealing, moving means (6) for slide-moving the nozzle-holding means and the condensing optical system-holding means relative to each other; gas-feeding means (13, 19) for feeding a gas into a laser processing head chamber (8) formed between the condensing optical system of the condensing optical system-holding means and the nozzle hole of the nozzle-holding means; passages (31) formed in the nozzle-holding means to communicate the laser processing head chamber with the exterior of the nozzle-holding means; slide members (33) that slide in the passages while maintaining sealing; and coupling means (35) for coupling the slide members to the condensing optical system-holding means. Therefore, the condensing optical system-holding means or the nozzle-holding means can be moved with a small force without providing an annular gas sub-chamber.

A capacitance-type encoder capable of obtaining position data of a movable element with low power-consumption. The capacitance-type encoder comprises a stator, a movable element arranged to confront the stator, an excitation device and a signal processing device. The stator has at least three excitation-electrode sets electrically independent from each other, each set constituted of excitation electrodes arranged cyclically and electrically connected with each other so that a predetermined number of excitation-electrode groups are formed. The movable element has connection electrodes having the same number as the excitation-electrode groups. The excitation device applies excitation signals to the excitation-electrode sets periodically in a predetermined sequence. The signal processing device determines which one of divided regions of one cycle of arrangement of the excitation electrodes the movable element is positioned in based on a combination pattern of detection signals generated in the connection electrodes.

摘要:
While a check ring of a screw of an injection molding machine is in open state, an absolute value (|Δ resin pressure/Δ rotation amount|) of a variation of a resin pressure per unit variation of the screw reverse rotation becomes greater than a predetermined reference value. However, after the check ring is closed, |Δ resin pressure/Δ rotation amount| becomes equal to or less than the reference value. From this, detecting if the |Δ resin pressure/Δ rotation amount| during reverse rotation of the screw, it is possible to determine that the check ring is closed or not. As a result, it is possible to obtain a screw reverse rotation amount which is optimal for reliably closing the check ring.
摘要:
If a screw is moved forward after a metering step is completed, the screw moves in a state where a check ring on a tip end of the screw is in open state. Resin flows in a direction opposite to the injection direction. A rotational force is applied to the screw due to the backflow of the resin. If the check ring closes a resin passage, the rotational force acting on the screw is reduced. A peak time of the screw rotational force is detected as closing point in time of the check ring. Physical amounts such as a screw rotational force and a screw position at that timing are detected. Since the closing point in time of the check ring is precisely detected, correction of the injection/hold pressure switching position and the injection speed switching position can be adjusted more precisely. It is possible to precisely determine whether a molded article is non-defective or defective based on the detected physical amount.

An initial weight of a grease storing cartridge attached to a pump is measured, and the measured value is compared with a reference weight and it is determined whether the initial weight of the cartridge is within an appropriate range or not. The weight of the cartridge is measured before and after execution of one operation cycle of the pump, and it is determined whether the difference therebetween (i.e., weight of grease which is actually supplied during one operation cycle) is within an appropriate range or not.

The numerical controller has function to switch between pressure control and position control, and comprises a numerical control unit and a servo control unit. While the servo control unit is controlling pressure, a servo position deviation amount corresponding to current actual speed of a control axis is set in the servo control unit. After the servo control unit switches to position control from pressure control, a number of pulses required for deceleration and stopping is output to an acceleration/deceleration processing unit of the numerical control unit according to an acceleration/deceleration time constant which is preset. The acceleration/deceleration processing unit outputs a moving amount for each distribution period to the servo control unit.

A servo amplifier for a robot capable of avoiding an excessive capacity for dealing with a regenerative power to achieve downsizing, cost reduction and energy saving of the device. A servo amplifier for driving servomotors of a robot to perform an operation using an electric power from a power source. The servo amplifier comprises a changeable converter connected with the power source and a plurality of inverters electrically connected with the converter and the servomotors. The changeable converter is selectively provided as a converter having a regenerative function of returning a regenerative power generated in the servomotors to the power source, or a converter having a regenerative function of discharging the regenerative power through a resistor, depending on conditions of the operation by the robot.
摘要:
Step data are sequentially read out from a conversational program created in a conversational format. The processor 13 determines whether or not leaning control in the step is possible. When the leaning control is possible, a learning start command is added to the start of the program to create and output an NC program in the step. Also a learning end command is added to the end of the NC program in the step. Conversion into the NC program is performed for each of steps. When a learning control automatic ON/OFF operation is selected to all the steps, a learning control start command and a learning control end command are added to the start and the end of the converted NC program when learning control of all the steps can be performed.
