It may refer to operating data such as history information on inspection, maintenance, and maintenance, component characteristics, endurance, frequency of use, and time of use.

In addition, the information collection and control unit 20 can obtain a control command for a machining facility system or a machine tool from the operation state information using various control programs such as NC, PLC, PMC, and the like. The control command may be analyzed to calculate correction coefficients applied to the calculation of the service life of each component.

In FIG. 1, the operation amount analysis unit 30 analyzes the operation amount for each part according to the machining operation state by using the operation state information transmitted from the information collection and control unit 20.

Parts management data is data for maintenance of parts such as standard life for each part, durability life according to actual operating conditions, remaining life, inspection history, etc. A detailed process of calculating part management data will be described with reference to FIG. 2.

The calculation unit 50 is based on the operation state information according to the control program output from the information collection and control unit 20 and the operation amount analysis data for each part of the equipment generated by the operation amount analysis unit 30, the actual according to each part Calculate lifespan The lifetime calculated at this time is called a count lifetime. The count life is the same concept as the endurance life for each part according to actual operating conditions, and may be calculated for each part and stored in the real time storage 40.

The count life calculated by the calculation unit 50 refers to the period (durable life) for which the corresponding parts have been driven in the normal range under the corresponding operating conditions when the machining center is operated in the actual operating state in the field.

This count life is affected by correction coefficients obtained from control command values such as NC, PLC, PMC, etc. corresponding to the actual operation state information.

In addition, the calculation unit 50 may receive the standard life data (SL) for each part selected from the storage unit 40, and calculate the service life status data for each part by using the calculated count life. Similarly, these data may also be stored in the storage 40. The service life status data for each part is a durable life registered according to the parts, and represents the ratio of the count life to the standard life for each part.

The information providing unit 60 is for each component acquired or calculated by each component of the tool management apparatus, that is, the information collection and control unit 20, the operation amount analysis unit 30, the storage unit 40, and the calculation unit 50. Collect management data and provide the necessary information.

That is, the information provider 60 may classify and provide the component data according to the characteristics of the component-specific management data collected and connected to the display unit 70 and the component management processor 80 and the user's request.

As an example, a display example of parts-specific management data transmitted to and displayed on the display unit 70 is illustrated in FIG. 3.

Referring to Fig. 3, the part name B selected according to the serial number A is disclosed. The service life status data (C) is displayed in a chart according to each component. The service life status data (C) sets the total length to the standard life of each part and displays the ratio of the endurance life (count life) of each part calculated based on the actual operating state information. Unlike FIG. 3, the ratio of the count life to the standard life can be numerically displayed more accurately.

In addition, the display unit 70 of FIG. 3 is part management data, in addition to the service life status data (C), information of a setting date (D), a due date (E), a notice (F), a history (G), and an initialization (H). Is displayed.

The setting date (D) indicates the date of calculating the service life according to the operation state according to the parts, and the expected life completion date (E) indicates the date when the life of the parts is completed based on each remaining life. The notice F may also display a message warning that the part should be replaced within a predetermined time before the end of the life of the part arrives. According to the embodiment, the warning message is displayed on the notice F and the alarm setting can be made at the same time.

In addition, the history G may display a history of failure checking for each component. According to an embodiment, it may be displayed simply whether there is a check within a predetermined period, or the last inspection date or the last part replacement date may be displayed.

In addition, in the initialization (H), it is possible to display a case where the part management data is newly reset after performing part management such as replacement processing for each part. According to an exemplary embodiment, the present invention is not limited to displaying only whether to perform initialization, but may be replaced by means for inputting an initialization command for the management data of the component.

The display of the parts management data of the display unit 70 of FIG. 3 is an exemplary embodiment, and the management information for each part is displayed in various configurations such as a future inspection point for each part, a future replacement date of the part, and a method for replacing each part. can do.

Returning to the configuration of the tool management apparatus of FIG. 1 again, the information providing unit 60 not only transmits the management data for each part to be displayed on the display unit 70 but also supplies the life management information of the management data for each part to the parts management processing unit 80. Thus, end of life years can be reached, providing information on parts that need to be inspected or replaced.

The part management processor 80 performs a function of replacing parts of the machine tool in the machining center automatically or manually.

As a specific example, the part management processing unit 80 may be configured as a smart module, and if the remaining life of the part from the part management data is within the set time range to be replaced, the user is notified or corresponding automatic parts replacement means Notice will be given to replace the part. At this time, the setting time range for each part can be changed and can be set for each part together with standard life information.

On the other hand, the information providing unit 60 may provide a replacement operation manual for the corresponding parts required to replace each component in connection with the component management processing unit 80. That is, the information providing unit 60 is connected to the internal communication hub or the external network of the machining center, alarm information, history information, and actual operation operation information for the digital manual or life notice according to the parts, in particular, the parts selected for management. By transmitting the back to the parts management processing unit 80, it is possible to provide safe and accurate replacement information of parts that are expected to fail or have to be replaced due to the endurance life. This enables real-time machine diagnostics of the machining center, precise failure prevention of each component and rapid machine maintenance.

FIG. 2 is a block diagram mainly showing a configuration in which a service life state of each part is calculated in the tool management apparatus 1 of the machining center of FIG. 1.

The main configuration for calculating the service life status according to the component selected as the management target among the configuration of the tool management device 1 is the machine tool 10, the information collection and control unit 20, the operation amount analysis unit 30, and The calculation unit 50 may be.

In more detail, the information collection and control unit 20 monitors and collects operation state information on selected parts of the machine tool 10 in the machining center. In another embodiment, the monitoring of the parts may be performed by a separate device, and the obtained driving state information may be concentrated on the information collection and control unit 20.

Then, control commands corresponding to the operation of each part are analyzed by using control programs such as NC, PLC, and PMC. Through analysis of the control command, it is possible to obtain a correction coefficient used for calculating the service life in response to an operating condition such as a variation state of a load amount and cutting conditions imposed on the operation of the actual equipment.

In some cases, the user can preset the operating conditions of some equipment of the machine tool of the machining center, and in this case, the correction factor can be obtained to calculate the actual count life through the analysis of the control command according to the set operating conditions. .

In this case, the correction coefficient refers to a variable that is corrected in consideration of the influence of the actual operating condition and operation state information in addition to the representative variables of the life calculation when calculating the count life for each part.

On the other hand, the operation amount analysis unit 30 analyzes the operation amount of each part while sharing the operation state information with the information collection and control unit 20. Referring to FIG. 2 as an example, the numerical values of the main factors affecting the lifespan of the parts are analyzed according to each driving stage of operation preparation, standby, idle operation, processing, and stop.

2 exemplarily illustrates data analyzed from operation state information of a corresponding equipment in order to assume one piece of equipment and calculate a durability life of a component included in the corresponding piece of equipment. That is, the variable of time is extracted for each driving stage, and the rotation time and the rotation speed of the spindle are analyzed in the idling stage. In the processing stage of the equipment, the movement time and the movement speed of each of the X, Y, and Z axes are extracted, and the rotation speed and number of rotations of the table, the number of operation of the automatic equipment changer (ATC), the rotation time and rotation of the magazine Analyze variables such as count.

The calculation of the variables of time and speed may be defined as operation amount analysis data. The operation amount analysis unit 30 may extract an element (variable) that affects the life of each part through the operation amount analysis data.

For example, it is possible to extract an element of the use time that affects the count life of the drive switch, the pneumatic product, and the electronic device from the time of the operation waiting phase.

In addition, it is possible to extract variables of count life calculation of components such as spindle bearings and rotary joints through the rotation time or rotation speed of the spindle.

 Factors such as ball screw, LM guide, support bearing, etc. on the life of parts, such as ball screw, LM guide, support bearing, index from the number of rotations and rotation time of the table Factors affecting life can be extracted. From the number of operations of the automatic machine changer (ATC) to the life of parts such as camboxes, toolports, spindle collets and springs, and from the rotation time and number of revolutions of the magazine to the life of parts such as reducers, magazine chains and cylinders. Influence factor can be extracted.

Meanwhile, the count life of the part is calculated by using the correction coefficients calculated by the information collection and control unit 20 in the operation unit 50 and the operation amount analysis data of the equipment analyzed by the operation amount analysis unit 30.

The operation amount analysis data is calculated based on the equipment composed of parts, but may be applied to the operation amount of each component of the equipment.

The main variables and correction coefficients for calculating the count life of each part are different depending on the calculation formula and operating conditions or actual operating conditions, so they cannot be collectively represented.However, the actual operation time or the number of operation times of each part can be calculated by multiplying the correction coefficients. Can be. Here, the actual running time or the actual running number is the main variable in calculating the count life of the part.

For example, the main variables of count life of MCC spindle (bearing) parts and count life of rotary joints, linear guides, pneumatic products (belts, cylinders), sensors, control parts, electrical parts, etc. And a count lifetime is reflected by the correction coefficient calculated by the control unit 20.

As another example, parts such as collets, springs (drawbars), and unclamper cylinders have a main variable frequency of use, and parts such as ball screws have a main variable of rotational frequency, so that these variables reflect a correction factor. Calculate count life.

On the other hand, the calculation unit 50 calculates the service life status of each component. That is, the standard life information corresponding to each part is extracted from the standard life data (DataSL) of the part, and the life state of the corresponding part is calculated using the count life of the part calculated by the calculation unit.

The service life of the part may be expressed as a percentage of the count life to the standard life. Therefore, by calculating the service life status of the parts, it is possible to grasp the remaining service life under the actual operating conditions or the actual operating conditions compared to the standard life. The expected life of replacement of the part can be determined from the remaining life. In the present invention, the remaining life of a part may be defined as a period in which the part is actually driven as a limit value of the count life at a standard life. In addition, the life expectancy is a period during which the corresponding parts are driven within a normal operating range, and refers to the lifespan until the time to be replaced for safe operation of the machine tool.

Therefore, the expected life can be set from the remaining life, and the parts management can be performed in the form of replacement or inspection for the parts that have reached the set expected life.

 4 is a flowchart illustrating a tool management method of a machining center according to an exemplary embodiment of the present invention.

First, the management target part of the machine tool is selected (S1). As described above, the component to be managed may be selected from a plurality of components constituting the equipment included in the machining center.

Then, the service life of each of the selected parts to be managed is investigated or the factors influencing the service life are calculated (S2). At this time, the life of the component to be managed is a standard life and refers to the life when operated under a predetermined average operating condition (operation condition) under a predetermined average environmental condition.

This standard life can be organized by table for each component and stored in the storage of the tool management device of the machine tool.

Part management data is generated based on the standard life table of the parts calculated in the step S2 (S3). In detail, the parts management data may extract parts affected by the life of each component of the data analysis by analyzing the operation amount data based on the current operating conditions and the operation state information of each part. The actual count life is calculated by reflecting the factors of the operation amount data analysis for each part. The ratio of the current count life to the standard life of the part can then be calculated, and the remaining life and the expected life of the part can be determined to prevent the part's failure from being diagnosed and to provide accurate maintenance of the equipment.

Specifically, the process of S3 is shown in FIG.

That is, the operation state of the machine tool is collected, and the control unit obtains the operation condition of each equipment or part of the machine tool from the operation state (S31).

The operation state information and the operation conditions are used to analyze the operation amount of each part (S32). The operation amount analysis for each part may analyze the operation of the equipment or the operation of individual components, and the operation amount data analysis may be analyzed by factors such as the operation time, the number of operations, and the speed of the corresponding equipment or component according to the driving stage.

Since the parts affected by the life are determined by the factors derived through the operation amount analysis in step S32, the count life of the current operating state is calculated for each part (S33). Since the analysis of the operation amount of the machine tool according to the current operation state is reflected in various loads, load change state, aging degree, etc. related to the current operation conditions, the count life of each part through the operation amount analysis is different from the standard life, the actual operation state And driving conditions are reflected.

Once the count life is calculated, the service life status data for each part is calculated (S34), and the standard life data for each part calculated in step S2 of FIG. 4 is used together.

The service life status data first calculates the ratio of the count life to the standard life for each part, and includes the remaining and estimated life of each part calculated therefrom. The life expectancy is not the remaining life until the actual operation of the component is stopped, but the remaining life until the time when the replacement is necessary because it cannot operate in the normal range.

And based on the service life status data for the parts calculated in step S34 to predict and predict the life expectancy for each part (S35). At this time, the service life status data or the life expectancy and notice indication for each part are automatically or manually displayed to the user, so that the user can perform the process of replacing parts, checking failures, and repairing according to the life expectancy of the parts. Information displayed on the user may include information on the service life of each part, as well as replacement time, inspection period, and inspection status data for each part.

In addition to the process of generating the parts management data, real-time operation state information may be provided by performing monitoring on each part in real time in step S36. The information of each monitored part may include information such as part replacement time and history of failure check (S37). These monitoring information may be collected as part management data at step S35 and used to process and manage parts. have.

Returning to the flow chart of FIG. 4, the parts management data is collected and sorted such as a replacement date, standard life, count life, remaining life, estimated life, inspection history management information, etc., for the endurance life registration and the scheduled replacement date of the parts. Through the process is provided as preventive check information of the part (S4).

In operation S3 of generating part management data, the maintenance information of the machine tool is provided through a step S7 of linking with a digital manual acquired through monitoring of parts (S5).

At this time, the maintenance information of the machine tool is added to the preventive inspection information, the information on the management method such as the characteristics, handling method, replacement method of each component acquired through the digital manual. The maintenance information of the machine tool does not depend on the subjective factors of the user's cognition ability and understanding level, and the management information of each part is easily obtained through the digital manual, and the user can easily identify the parts to be replaced. And exchange it. Therefore, it is possible to prevent accidental failure for each part in advance and improve the operation rate of the facility (S6).
