Abstract:
This control device for a machine tool is provided with: a display unit that displays information relating to a machine tool; a display control unit that controls the display of the display unit; and a storage unit. A display setting of the display unit that corresponds to an operation of an operator or the condition of the machine tool is stored in advance in the storage unit. The display control unit acquires an operation of the operator or the condition of the machine tool, reads the display setting corresponding to the operation of the operator or the condition of the machine tool from the storage unit, and changes the display of the display unit on the basis of the display setting.
Abstract:
Provided is a control device for a machine tool that exchanges a tool and machines a work piece on the basis of a machining program, said control device being provided with a machining program analysis unit that analyzes a machining program and extracts, from the machining program, measurement-related information relating to a dimensional measurement of a tool, and with a measurement program generation unit that, on the basis of the measurement-related information and basic tool information input in advance, generates a measurement program for measuring the dimensions of the tool.
Abstract:
In order to facilitate reuse of an NC program for operation that has been executed in the past, this control device for a machine tool that drives the machine tool by executing an NC program is provided with: a first program storage unit that identifies an NC program for machining using a program name or program number and stores said program; a second program storage unit that stores an NC program for operation each time an operator executes an NC program for operation that is input manually; and a display unit that lists a plurality of NC programs for operation stored in the second program storage unit and displays said programs.
Abstract:
In order to make it possible for an operator of a machine tool to easily calculate machining conditions and prevent calculation errors and input errors by the operator, this control device for a machine tool, which machines a work piece on the basis of a machining program, is provided with: a database that stores calculation formulas corresponding to types of calculation, and types of parameters required to execute said calculation formulas; an input unit that selects a type of calculation; and a display unit that displays, on the basis of the type of calculation selected by the input unit, the parameter to be input.
Abstract:
A control apparatus for controlling a machine tool on the basis of a machining program is provided with: a storage unit which stores an inspection item list for a workpiece, said inspection item list being associated with the machining program; and a display unit which, when the machining program is executed, displays the stored inspection items associated with the machining program.
Abstract:
A machining-information management device that manages machining information for a machine tool that machines a workpiece by moving said workpiece relative to a tool and/or moving said tool relative to the workpiece on the basis of a machining program. Said machining-information management device has the following: an extraction unit that extracts a tool swap command and a coordinate-system selection command from a machining program that machines a predetermined workpiece; an acquisition unit that acquires tool information associated with a tool specified in the aforementioned tool swap command and coordinate information associated with a coordinate system specified in the aforementioned coordinate-system selection command; and a generation unit that generates combined machining information that contains the abovementioned machining program, the aforementioned tool information, and the aforementioned coordinate information.
Abstract:
This control device for a machine tool has a display unit that displays an input screen via which machining information regarding machining to be performed on a workpiece is inputted and an input unit via which letters and/or numbers are inputted into machining-information fields on the input screen. When a machining-information field on the input screen is selected, the display unit displays a first input-assistance screen corresponding to said field. Input-support buttons are laid out on said first input-assistance screen. When an input-support button is pressed, a second input-assistance screen is displayed, and via an operation performed in accordance with said second input-assistance screen, the aforementioned field is filled in.
Abstract:
Graphics representing a main-spindle-side structure and a table-side structure and graphics representing arrows indicating the movement directions of feed shafts are stored in a storage unit, and when switched to manual operation, a display computation unit computes the orientations of said arrows with respect to the structure that moves, said structure being either the main-spindle-side structure or the table-side structure, and computed graphics representing the structures and the arrows are displayed in a differentiated manner so as to make it evident which structure moves.
Abstract:
A control device for a machine tool, said control device being provided with a display unit that displays machining information and a display control unit that generates an image to display on said display unit. The display control unit is designed so as to divide up the display region of the display unit, generating a plurality of subregions. Via input from an operator, the sizes of said subregions can be changed. The display control unit changes the display format of the machining information in accordance with the machining information to be displayed and the sizes of the subregions.
Abstract:
A control device for a machine tool that moves a tool relative to a workpiece and/or vice versa and machines said workpiece. Said control device is provided with a display unit that displays information related to the machine tool, a first-layer generation unit that generates a first layer that contains machining information related to the machining being performed on the workpiece, and a second-layer generation unit that generates a second layer that contains an image or handwritten note related to the machining information in the first layer. The display unit displays an image consisting of the second layer superimposed onto the first layer.
