Abstract:
A control node has a sequence table and subscribers, with the sequence table having data records each having an identification for an action of a manufacturing sequence associated with the control node, an identification for a subscriber carrying out the action and an identification of a parameter set associated with the action, and wherein each subscriber has a sequence interpreter which is designed to read and to interpret the sequence table, and to initiate the actions associated with the subscriber.

Abstract:
A programming device for a network of control nodes includes a recording module for determining the control nodes connected to the network and a system object module connected to the recording module. The system object module includes a system object model representing the control-node configuration of the network, the system object module being configured to define the communication relations between the determined control nodes on the basis of the system object model. The programming device further includes a configuration output module connected to the system object module for transmitting the communication relations between the control nodes in the network to the control nodes, the communication relations being determined by the system object module.

Abstract:
A control node for a network of control nodes includes a transmitter module configured to manage the data to be sent in an output process image, to convert the output process image into a data packet and to output the data packet onto the network at a predetermined point in time. The control node further includes a receiver module configured to log on to the data packets of one or of a plurality of transmitter modules of further control nodes and to convert a received data packet into an input process image. The data transmission between the control nodes in the network takes place in the form of data packets.

Abstract:
A machine tool for cutting workpieces, the machine tool having a tool slide shiftable on or along a machine tool table as support of a machining unit. The machining unit has at least one work spindle and a workpiece support for receiving the workpieces to be machined. For enabling fast machining including an accurate and rapid positioning of the machining unit with as few linear guidances as possible, the tool slide has a transverse support shiftably guided on or along the machine tool table and also has two cross slides shiftable in its longitudinal direction. The machining unit is jointedly arranged between the cross slides via a coupling mechanism having at least two dimensionally stable swivel arms for axially moving the work spindle.
Abstract:
A machine tool comprising a machining spindle, a device for inserting an auxiliary unit into the machining spindle, a tool magazine for providing a multitude of tools and a tool changer comprising at least one tool gripper for holding tools for the machining spindle for the transportation of tools between the tool magazine and an exchange position at the machining spindle. To ensure an automatic supply to the machining spindle as well as to the auxiliary unit in a simple and fast way the tool changer has at least one additional tool gripper for holding tools for the auxiliary unit.
Abstract:
A machining unit on a machine tool, especially a universal milling and drilling machine, comprising a motor-driven work spindle rotatably mounted in a casing of a spindle head, an adapter unit comprising a motor-driven adapter spindle and insertable into the work spindle, a first connecting part disposed on the spindle head and containing plug-in connections connected by lines to supplies of working media and a second connecting part disposed on the adapter unit, and containing mating plugs which can be coupled to the plug-in connections for releasably connecting the adapter unit to the working-media supply. A clamping device for releasably holding the plug-in connections and mating connections in the coupled position is disposed on at least one of the two connecting parts, thus providing a secure connection between the plug-in connections disposed in the spindle casing and the mating connections disposed on the adapter unit.
Abstract:
A real-time run-time system comprises a plurality of functional modules and an administration module. The plurality of functional modules is configured to log on to the administration module using an assigned module identification during a transitional state between initialization and pre-operation and to log off during a transitional state between pre-operation and initialization. At least one of the plurality of functional modules is configured to establish communication connections with further functional modules via the administration module during the transitional state between pre-operation and trial operation, to break down the communication connections during the transitional state between trial operation and pre-operation, to log on to the further functional modules during the transitional state between trial operation and real-time operation and to log off during the transitional state between real-time operation and trial operation.
