    摘要: An NC device as a numerical control device controls an additive manufacturing apparatus for producing an object by layering, on a workpiece, a material melted by being irradiated with a beam. The NC device includes: a feature quantity extracting unit that extracts, from image data, a feature quantity for determining a welding state that is a state where a molten material is added to the workpiece; and a process map creating unit that creates a process map in which a shape of the object and a layering condition are associated with each other. The layering condition is selected from among a plurality of layering conditions on the basis of a result of determination of the welding state, and includes at least one of beam intensity and a supply amount of a material.

    摘要: An additive manufacturing apparatus performs additive machining by controlling a machining head that includes a wire nozzle to feed a wire to a machining region on a surface of a base material, a beam source capable of emitting a beam to an end of the wire, and a gas nozzle placed such that the beam source is interposed between the gas nozzle and the wire nozzle, the gas nozzle directing a gas toward the machining region, and the additive manufacturing apparatus includes a machining-condition selection unit to obtain an angle that is formed between a direction in which the wire is fed and a travel direction of the machining head, when viewed in a direction in which the beam is emitted, and to select a machining condition for the additive machining on the basis of the angle.

    摘要: An NC device includes an additive manufacturing execution unit that controls an additive manufacturing process for producing a shaped object by stacking layers of a material melted, a subtractive manufacturing execution unit that controls a subtractive manufacturing process for cutting the shaped object using a tool, a status analysis unit that analyzes a machining status of the shaped object based on sensor data obtained by monitoring of the machining status of the shaped object produced by a combination of the additive and subtractive manufacturing processes, a production process change unit that outputs, to the additive and subtractive manufacturing execution units, a switching command that commands switching a production process, based on the analysis of the machining status, and a process condition generation unit that determines a process condition to be used in a production process after switching, based on a process condition used before the switching.

    摘要: An NC device that is a numerical control device controls an additive manufacturing apparatus. The additive manufacturing apparatus performs modeling by application of a melted material. The NC device includes a monitoring unit that monitors occurrence of a drop caused by a material after being melted remaining on the material before being melted, and a command generating unit that generates commands for causing the additive manufacturing apparatus to remove the drop that has occurred.
