About program management function operations pattern, so far no longer provide further details.
The program management function of useful exemplary embodiment predetermined operation program is managed CNC job sequence complex in the mode relevant with workpiece subprogram.
This solution advantage be the program management function all the time together management relate to the subprogram of workpiece or order so that the operator needn't seek the various piece program that belongs to workpiece again and suitably manage them respectively.
If the program management function of running program is stored the subprogram of CNC job sequence complex in the mode relevant with workpiece,, be useful especially so that make storage and to seek described subprogram subsequently easier.
In addition, if the subprogram that the program management function of running program is preserved CNC job sequence complex in the mode relevant with workpiece promptly particularly is kept at them on the external data storage device, also make the described subprogram of preservation more easy.
In addition, the program management function of useful solution predetermined operation program comes to send to action control the subprogram of CNC job sequence complex in the mode relevant with workpiece.
In this respect, if the program management function of running program is sent on each passage of action control in the mode relevant with workpiece and the subprogram of activation CNC job sequence complex, be useful especially.
Promptly in this case, the program management function automatically detects each passage of the control program of action control, then the single passage of corresponding subprogram and these is associated.
About each further function of running program, so far no longer provide further details in conjunction with the explanation of each exemplary embodiment.
So far as an alternative or except that according to the described embodiment of simulation system of the present invention, useful simulation system predetermined operation program comprises the routine processes function, can assign to revise described CNC job sequence complex by the program division of visiting CNC job sequence complex at least whereby.
Because the simulation system of previously known can not be handled CNC job sequence complex or its program part generally according to any way, opened previous possibility in conjunction with simulation system the unknown so form simulation system in this manner.
This makes need be constantly mutual between programming Control platform and simulation system, and described according to prior art is essential alternately, consequently makes significantly and can more easily operate described simulation system.
If the routine processes function comprises the program creation pattern, be useful especially.
This program creation pattern advantage is, in according to programming system of the present invention, directly create after a while or correction portion CNC job sequence complex, when in simulation, detecting undesired action, can be easy to revise described action or test other alternative acts with box lunch.
In addition, if the routine processes function comprises the input pattern that is used for corrected value, be useful.
This corrected value for example can be position or each functional mode of machining cell, for example rotational speed of proofreading and correct machining cell.
This makes can finish CNC job sequence complex with the specific degree of lathe during simulating.
If the routine processes function is automatically taken over modification of program (take over) in CNC job sequence complex,, also can make the processing of CNC job sequence complex more easy so that the operator needn't specially be concerned about this point.
In addition, if the routine processes function automatically loads and gets back in the operation control so that revise being present in subprogram in the action control, be useful.
The very big advantage of this function is, with different under the situation of known analog system, the operator needn't call the various piece program and they are passed on and get back to the programming Control platform.But, when separately subprogram is loaded in the action control, calling program processing capacity immediately, described subprogram are got back to from described action control loaded the operation control so that revise, and are loaded once more as required then and get back in the described action control.
Allow to create CNC job sequence complex in the mode of moving as far as possible on lathe in order to utilize according to simulation system of the present invention, the routine processes function comprises that the input pattern that is used for cutter is suitable.
This input pattern that is used for cutter also allows employed cutter to be defined then and is represented as virtual cutter in simulation.
This has also improved the quality of simulation and assessment of function significantly during simulating, this be since may be after tested during described simulation cutter spacial influence that each machining cell is moved.
In order to allow CNC job sequence complex as much as possible on machine, to move, in embodiment according to simulation system of the present invention, the routine processes function comprises the input pattern that is used for tool compensation, even so that can be merged in the described CNC job sequence complex equally and be considered in simulation by the desired correction of employed cutter.
Allow more easily to eliminate mistake in the CNC job sequence complex in operating aspect in order to utilize according to simulation system of the present invention, the preferred operations program comprises analytic function.
Utilize this analytic function, particularly the mistake in its subprogram is more easy to make mistake in location and the definite CNC job sequence complex significantly, carries out thereby can also save more time.
In this respect, preferably in the recognition mode of analytic function, current in action control handled NC piece be discernible, so that this makes in the time of can detecting mistake during simulating, this NC piece of mark, although it is current moving in the control processed, thereby and can more easily find described NC piece once more so that can at length check each sequence after a while.
Further useful solution regulation in the display mode of described analytic function, can show at least one movable at that time program command.Mistake in the also feasible finder more promptly of display routine order, described mistake is for example detected during simulating, and eliminates by suitable correction.
Further useful solution regulation in the parameter display mode of analytic function, can show at least one at least one parameter in the virtual processing unit.
This parameter of virtual processing unit for example is the axial location of unit, but this parameter for example also can be the rotational speed of work spindle, or the position of the capstan head of the rotational speed of driving cutter or machining cell.

The very big advantage of this solution is that not requiring programmes makes great efforts the creation operation program, but can directly take over described running program from actual lathe.
In addition, use the very big advantage of this running program to be, the operator needn't adapt to according to any way, this is because thereby he or she is familiar with the operation of machine tool program usually and finds that the identical operations program has identical functions on simulation system, so that described operator can further just can not utilize simulation system work according to him or she to the knowledge of actual operation of machine tool program under the situation of training, and know and can use all to make the easier means of operation, described means are provided by actual operation of machine tool program.
For can be under the situation of this running program operating control procedure, communicating by letter with control program is necessary to make running program and reprogramming (adaptation program) interaction, and described reprogramming is guaranteed the reciprocation between described running program and control program respectively.
So far no longer similarly provide further details about the control program that forms action control.Useful solution regulation control program is not to be the specific control program of lathe, so that can create this control program according to the requirement of simulation system.
In this case, running program is suitable for not is the specific control program of lathe to reprogramming.
As substituting of this, the control program of preferred solution compulsory exercise control comprises the core control program of the actual lathe that is used to generate control command.

In order to handle in the organizing communication unit 230 and each communication unit 236 1To 236 8Between communication, described organizing communication unit 230 utilizes organizing communication program 240 work, and described communication unit 236 1To 236 8Utilize signal procedure 242 1To 242 8Work, described organizing communication program 240 and signal procedure 242 cooperate with one another.Under the situation of exemplary embodiment, at all communication units 236 1To 236 8In signal procedure 242 preferably identical so that have as far as possible little programing work.
In addition, under the situation of this exemplary embodiment, similarly construct communication unit 236 basically 1To 236 8And communication interface 232 1To 232 8, so that the expense about nextport hardware component NextPort is minimized.
Under situation, there are not machine control and communication unit 263 according to production equipment of the present invention 1With 236 8Be associated, but simulation system 250 or 260 is associated with them respectively, for example form simulation system 250, and form simulation system 260 according to the 4th exemplary embodiment of as shown in Figure 6 above-mentioned simulation system according to above-mentioned second exemplary embodiment as shown in Fig. 3 and 4.
Under the situation of simulation system 250,260, the preferred running program with the machine control 212 or 214 of actual lathe 206 and 208 respectively of running program 70 is identical, so that do not require at signal procedure 242 1With 242 8And the further reorganization between the running program 70, and communication unit 236 1With 236 8Can also be used for machine control 212 1To 212 3With 214 1To 214 3Communication unit 236 2To 236 7Identical, even if operation control 60 and 60 ' is corresponding to actual lathe 206 1To 206 3With 208 1To 208 3Actual machine control 212 1To 212 3With 214 1To 214 3Operation control also be like this.
Thereby organization of production system 220 provides production schedule level and operation instruction level, so that be organized in the lathe 206 in Production Regional 202 and 204 respectively 1To 206 3And 208 1To 208 3Last processing work is distinguished optimal lathe 206 as far as possible simultaneously 1To 206 3With 208 1To 208 3
For this reason, be used for the CNC job sequence complex 68 of workpiece separately by the organization of production program 224 in the data-carrier store 226 to manage, so that at lathe 206 towards the mode of workpiece 1To 206 3With 208 1To 208 3One of go up and the expection workpiece to be carried out under the situation of process operation machine control 212 separately 1To 212 3Or 214 1To 214 3Send corresponding C NC job sequence complex 68, exactly via organizing communication unit 230, its organizing communication program 240 is associated corresponding C NC job sequence complex 68 with corresponding communication interface 232, and send described CNC job sequence complex 68 to corresponding communication unit 236 via described communication interface 232 and communication path 234, described communication unit 236 is controlled 212 or 214 with machine separately and is associated, so that described machine control 212 or 214 separately can be used its CNC job sequence complex 68 separately, thereby operation lathe 206 or 208 separately comes processing work.
In this case, organization of production system 220 preferably is not limited to control 212 or 214 to machine separately and sends CNC job sequence complexs 68, sends additional steering order 270 but can also control 212 or 214 to machine separately via the organizing communication unit 230 with organizing communication program 240.
In the same manner, can be via organizing communication unit 230 from single machine control 212 or 214 confirmations of receipt 272 with organizing communication program 240.
This steering order 270 for example is about CNC job sequence complex 68 beginnings of being programmed in the control of separately machine or about number pieces to be processed or about the steering order that stops of the CNC job sequence complex 68 of being programmed.
In addition, steering order 270 can also comprise the instruction that is used for after the processing of carrying out expection 68 loadings of CNC job sequence complex being got back to organization of production system 220, so that handle separately CNC job sequence complex 68 in this organization of production system stores in the data-carrier store 226.
Confirm that 272 for example is to want the affirmation of seeking time about the affirmation of process time of separately lathe 212 or 214 or free time and about the number pieces processed with for this.
Yet confirm that 272 can also comprise the further information about processing work on lathe 206 or 208 separately; This information for example can also be the information about the performance of single lathe 206 or 208.
Importantly under situation according to organization of production of the present invention system 220, the data structure of all CNC job sequence complexs 68 that can send to each machine control 212 or 214 is identical, and steering order 270 also is identical with the data structure of confirming 272, can handle described steering order 270 and confirm 272 according to same way as so that organization of production program 224 not only can be handled CNC job sequence complex 68, and no matter they control 212 or 214 from which machine of lathe 206 or 208.
That usually be associated with in Production Regional 202 and 204 each is the machine operator, described machine operator is can be under the situation of the CNC job sequence complex that moves on the lathe, only must monitor that lathe 206,208 is about the fault of potential appearance or about the function of the intervention in the production sequence, described intervention is necessary under the situation of some part.
Yet, machine operator in the Production Regional 202 and 204 still has the available time during processing work usually, and should effectively utilize this time as far as possible, wherein said processing is just carried out on the lathe 206 or 208 that he or she was responsible for, and described processing is planned to and guide by means of organization of production system 220 basically.
For this reason, at least one simulation system 250 or 260 is associated with Production Regional 202 and 204 respectively, on the lathe 206 or 208 of separately Production Regional 202 or 204, do not move production operation if require the machine operator, provide further possible activity to him or she so.
For example, the machine operator of Production Regional 202 can use simulation system 250 to create and simulate CNC job sequence complex 68 or simulate this job sequence complex 68, wherein this job sequence complex 68 can be used by organization of production system 220, so that check their functipnal capability or so that increase the effect of the action of the single machining cell that CNC job sequence complex thus provided, for example so that prepare and quicken thus the commissioning process of this CNC job sequence complex 68 on one of lathe 206, thereby and save process time of described lathe 206.
Yet, it is also contemplated that, the machine operator at first tests, and if desired, with respect to machining cell may collide or the CNC job sequence complex of being created by simulation system 250 68 is proofreaied and correct in other problematic action, exactly utilize simulation system 250, as describing in detail in the above.
Thereby, can utilize simulation system 250 be corrected on the virtual lathe 44 in the analog representation virtual processing unit 46 all problems of the CNC job sequence complex 68 that can discern, so that after the correction of in simulation system 250, carrying out whole simulation and may requiring, described CNC job sequence complex 68 can be loaded once more to be got back in the organization of production system 220, particularly in the data-carrier store 226 of described system.
For make organization of production system 220 particularly organization of production program 224 can detect it and handle the CNC job sequence complex 68 that only is created or handle the CNC job sequence complex 68 that has utilized simulation system 250 tests, or on one of lathe 206 and 208, not had any CNC job sequence complex 68 that is successfully used and move mistakenly, CNC job sequence complex 68 has the attribute field that can be read by organization of production program 224.
Thereby organization of production program 224 can be distinguished the CNC job sequence complex 68 that only is programmed and the CNC job sequence complex 68 that has simulated test or successfully be used for the production and processing workpiece in each CNC job sequence complex 68 CNC job sequence complex 68, thereby and using such CNC job sequence complex 68 before producing on one of lathe 206 or 208, this CNC job sequence complex 68 can be used, so that check this CNC job sequence complex 68 and if necessary it is proofreaied and correct by a machine operator in Production Regional 202 and 204 on one of simulation system 250 or 260 by simulation.
Under situation as shown in Figure 7 according to production equipment of the present invention, thereby test and CNC job sequence complex 68 that proofread and correct as required can be taken over once more in the data-carrier store 226 by organization of production system 220 and can be used by the machine operator equally then, in the case of any possible, this operator be also carry out simulation, Production Regional 202 or 204 machine operator, with test run on one of available lathe 206 or 208.
