New trends in the development of machine tool technology (5)


Mazak believes that the machine utilization rate is only 25% due to the following five factors.

1 programming, program editing and trial cutting.

2 Measure, input and manage tool data.

3 The machine tool has been re-adjusted due to changes in production schedules.

4 Report and monitor the number and operation of the machine tool to the superior.

5 Make decisions and find fixtures for the workpiece mounting method.

For the above five factors, the following four software modules are seamlessly integrated in the CPC.

1 plan scheduling module (Scheduler)

The best multi-variety parts processing plan is proposed through simulation. When the dispatch is inserted, perform a re-simulation of the change plan to find the best solution for scheduling. Resources can be optimized for rapid response without production disruption. In addition, the module collects and analyzes shop floor data.

2 fixture management module (ToolManagerment)

It makes the best application and cost of tools and fixtures the lowest. List the tools and fixtures for each type of workpiece.

3 machine monitoring module (MachineMonitor)

Monitor the operation of each machine online and easily monitor it remotely in the office or via the Internet.

4 programming and program optimization module (Camware)

Human-machine interactive programming and program optimization.

Mazak called its CPC "The Digital Manufacturing Solution" and exhibited it as an independent product on the IMTS2000. The sample lists three users' satisfaction with their functions and claims that their 30 machines in the Chinese factory (ie Yinchuan “Little Giant”) are directly controlled by their CPC.

Daxie refers to its "IT Plaza" as "OkumaNetFactory". It means integrating information technology (IT) with processing technology. It is believed that advanced processing technology alone cannot survive in the fierce competition. IT must be used to “speed up” and expand “business opportunities”.

The concept of "IT Square" is a three-dimensional ball, and the center of the ball is a numerical control (CNC) system. On the circumference of three circular planes on the sphere (one horizontal plane and two 90° vertical planes), six small balls are distributed, representing people, machine tools, three software modules and an Internet portal. Six small balls point to the center of the sphere (CNC system) and interact.

Spring Washer

Spring washers are widely used in load-bearing and non-load-bearing structures of general mechanical products. They are characterized by low cost, convenient installation, and are suitable for parts with frequent assembly and disassembly. The spring Washer is installed under the nut to prevent the nut from loosening.
