摘要： Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, that can optimize a manufacturing plant's operations and/or production based on simulations that utilize information about the current and forthcoming manufacturing conditions to determine the optimal operational characteristics for the different plant devices. Methods may include obtaining, using data from a set of sensors, a set of current operational characteristics for multiple plant devices in a plant. Multiple manufacturing scenarios can be simulated using different sets of operational characteristics for plant devices in which at least one operational characteristic from the set of current operational characteristics is varied. A first manufacturing scenario can be determined that satisfies overall operational parameter(s) for one or more plant devices or for the whole manufacturing plant. Setting(s) of one or more plant devices can be adjusted based on a set of operational characteristics corresponding to the first manufacturing scenario.

摘要： To optimize an automatically optimized machining time for machining a workpiece in a machine tool, an original parts program is loaded into a machine tool controller. The machining of the workpiece using the original parts program is simulated, where a motion path generated by the original parts program in the machine tool is determined. The motion path is classified into at least one area of potential optimization in which there is no workpiece contact. The at least one area of potential optimization is assigned a tolerance space. An optimized motion path is determined within the tolerance space. The machining of the workpiece using the modified parts program is simulated. The optimized motion path is displayed and marked. Once a user has approved the modification in the parts program, machining of the workpiece takes place using the modified parts program.

摘要： A method for designing cutting conditions for cutting a workpiece with a cutting tool uses design parameters, including a feed speed, an axial direction cutting amount, a radial direction cutting amount, and a cutting speed of/by the cutting tool. A deflection amount of the cutting tool is calculated from the design parameters. Then a “chattering vibration” occurs or not in the cutting tool is determined. Depending on the determination result, a maximum cutting thickness of the workpiece is calculated. Then a cutting temperature of the cutting tool is calculated. Then whether a tool life of the cutting tool is satisfied or not is determined. Depending on the determination result, a cutting efficiency of the cutting tool is calculated and compared with data of a cutting efficiency stored in advance. When the calculated cutting efficiency is a maximum value among the data, the design parameters are used as the cutting conditions.

摘要： An object of this invention is to generate NC (Numerical Control) data to improve efficiency of machining. This invention comprises the steps of: generating NC data to machine a first portion of an object, wherein the first portion is specified based on a supposed cutting load distribution of the object; and generating NC data to machine the object after the first portion of the object was machined. Thus, at least two-phase machining data is generated which is separated based on high or low of the supposed cutting load, for example. That is, a tool machine processes the object stepwise. Therefore, it becomes possible that a portion is machined in advance, that it is determined that it is better to machine beforehand based on the supposed cutting load distribution, and the object after the machining is separately machined.
