摘要:
A tailstock body of a numerically controlled lathe is positioned by a hydraulic rotary motor at a desired position to have a quill center of the tailstock body engage one end of a part or workpiece. The positioning of the tailstock body is by a programmable controller of a numerical control receiving signals for an encoder attached to the hydraulic rotary motor.

A robotic system may include an incremental encoder coupled to a joint of the system. The robotic system may include a memory configured to store representations of angular positions of the joint. The robotic system may include a motor coupled to the joint, where rotation of the joint while the motor is powered off (i) causes rotation of the motor such that electric power is generated, and (ii) updates the angular position of the joint. The robotic system may use the electric power to power on the incremental encoder and the memory while the robotic system is powered off. One or more processors may obtain, when the robotic system powers on after being powered off, the updated angular position of the joint from the memory, where the incremental encoder provides the updated angular position to the memory while the robotic system is powered off.

A fixed station at a numerically controlled machine includes gauging means and automatic adjusting means for an adjustable cutting tool installed in the spindle of the numerically controlled machine. Multiple tools stored in the magazine of the NC machine for different cutting operations are provided with a common reference dimension to a cutting point so that the same gauge heads which include differential transducers registering respectively with the cutting point and reference surface of the tool can be employed to effect gauging and adjustment of different cutting tools.

A method and apparatus are disclosed for automatically realigning a machine element to a predetermined position after an interruption of power to a drive mechanism coupled to the machine element. After the termination of power, the apparatus measures a displacement of the machine element during a predetermined period of time; and this displacement is stored in a nonvolatile memory. When power is restored to the drive mechanism, the apparatus is operative to automatically move the machine element back through a distance equal to the stored displacement. Consequently, the machine element realigns to the position it had before the power interruption.

摘要:
This invention relates to a commanded position restoration method in a numerical control system comprising an NC unit (11) having a path control function and machine position correction function, a motor (15) rotated on the basis of a command from the NC unit for driving a movable machine element, a pulse coder (16a) which rotates in synchronization with rotation of the motor and which generates a pulse whenever it rotates through a prescribed angle, and a counter (16b) which counts the pulses in dependence upon the direction of rotation for storing the machine position, which counter stores the machine position even if power is cut off.In the commanded position restoration method, a counted value C.sub.RA in the counter (16b) at the time of reference point return is set beforehand in a memory (11c) backed up by a battery. Whenever power is introduced to the system, a counted value C.sub.A in the counter (11c) is read, the reference point is hypothetically taken as the present machine position, and the machine position at introduction of power is taken as a target position.An interpolation operation is performed internally in a machine-locked state to update present machine position data C.sub.RA, the movable machine element is moved hypothetically from the reference point to the present machine position which prevailed at introduction of power (i.e. until C.sub.RA =C.sub.A holds), and a commanded position which prevailed at introduction of power is restored by using command data necesary for achieving the abovementioned movement.
