<First Embodiment>
A first embodiment will be described with reference to FIGS. First, the whole structure of the processing machine 10 of this embodiment is demonstrated using FIG. 1 thru | or FIG.

[Processing machine]
As shown in FIG. 1, the processing machine 100 houses a processing machine main body 40 in an exterior cover 101. The exterior cover 101 has an opening / closing door 102, and the workpiece can be exchanged by opening the opening / closing door 102. Further, the open / close door 102 is closed during the processing of the workpiece. Opening / closing of the open / close door 102 is detected by a sensor (not shown).

  As shown in FIG. 2, the processing machine main body 40 includes a base 11 and a column 12 provided so as to rise from the base 11 in the vertical direction. The column 12 supports the spindle head 16 movably in the Z-axis direction (vertical direction, first direction) via the Z-axis stage 23z. On the base 11, the rotation support part 19 is provided via the Y-axis stage 23y and the X-axis stage 23x.

  The spindle head 16 is provided with a spindle 5, and a tool 13 is detachably attached to the spindle 5 via a tool holder. The main shaft 5 is rotationally driven by a motor (not shown). The spindle head 16 reciprocates (lifts) in the Z-axis direction with respect to the column 12 together with the Z-axis stage 23z by driving the motor 21z. The Z-axis stage 23z is, for example, a member that moves along a feed screw that is rotated by driving the motor 21z, and moves in the Z-axis direction as the feed screw rotates while supporting the spindle head 16. Accordingly, the spindle 5 and the tool 13 attached to the spindle head 16 are movable in the Z-axis direction.

  The rotation support unit 19 supports, for example, a workpiece W as a workpiece to be cut by the tool 13 such as a dental prosthesis via the workpiece holding device 50. The workpiece holding device 50 holds the workpiece W by the holding portion 51, and the rotation support portion 19 supports the holding portion 51 in a rotatable manner.

  The holding part 51 is rotatably supported on both sides in the X-axis direction by a pair of rotating parts 52 of the rotation support part 19. The pair of rotating parts 52 are arranged in the same straight line in the X-axis direction, and one rotating part 52 is rotationally driven by driving a motor (not shown) provided in the rotation support part 19. Thereby, the holding part 51 can be rotated so that the front surface (one side surface) and the back surface (opposite side surface) of the workpiece W are switched with the rotation unit 52 as the center.

  As described above, the rotation support unit 19 is provided on the base 11 via the Y-axis stage 23y and the X-axis stage 23x. The Y-axis stage 23y reciprocates in the Y-axis direction (horizontal direction, second direction) orthogonal to the Z-axis direction by driving the motor 21y (FIG. 2). The X-axis stage 23x reciprocates in the X-axis direction (horizontal direction, third direction) orthogonal to the Z-axis direction and the Y-axis direction by driving the motor 21x. The Y-axis stage 23y and the X-axis stage 23x are members that move along, for example, a feed screw that rotates by driving a motor, and move in the Y-axis direction and the X-axis direction, respectively, as the feed screw rotates. Such a mechanism for operating the X-axis, Y-axis, and Z-axis stages is not limited to the above-described feed screw mechanism, and may be another mechanism such as a rack and pinion.

  In the present embodiment, the Y-axis stage 23y is supported to be reciprocally movable in the Y-axis direction with respect to the base 11, and the X-axis stage 23x is supported to be reciprocally movable in the X-axis direction with respect to the Y-axis stage 23y. ing. And the rotation support part 19 is being fixed to the X-axis stage 23x. Therefore, the rotation support unit 19 is movable in the X-axis direction and the Y-axis direction by the X-axis stage 23x and the Y-axis stage 23y.

  A tool magazine 18 is provided integrally with the rotation support unit 19 on the column 12 side of the rotation support unit 19. In the tool magazine 18, a plurality of types of tools formed integrally with the tool holder 53 are held and arranged side by side along the X-axis direction. The tool attached to the main shaft 5 can be exchanged. The tool holder 53 is a portion held by the main shaft 5 and may be formed integrally with the tool or may be formed separately. In this embodiment, the chuck 13 with a chuck is attached to the tool holder 53, and the chuck portion for holding the tool of the spindle 5 holds the tool holder 53 via the tool holder 53. However, a tool may be directly attached to the main shaft 5. The replacement of the tool may be performed by an operator or may be automatically performed by the processing machine 100.

  When the tool is automatically changed, the empty space in the tool magazine 18 where the tool 13 is not contained is moved below the spindle 5 by the X-axis stage 23x and the Y-axis stage 23y. Then, the spindle 5 is moved down by the Z-axis stage 23z, and the attaching / detaching device such as a chuck provided on the spindle 5 is operated to remove the tool 13 attached to the spindle 5 to the empty space in the tool magazine 18. 13 is arranged. Next, the spindle 5 is raised by the Z-axis stage 23z, and the position where the tool 13 to be replaced of the tool magazine 18 is arranged is moved below the spindle 5 by the X-axis stage 23x. Then, again, the spindle 5 is lowered by the Z-axis stage 23z, and the attaching / detaching device is operated, so that the tool 13 to be replaced is attached to the spindle 5. The tool 13 is, for example, a drill or an end mill.

  The tool magazine 18 is provided with a tool length sensor 43 that can detect the length of the tool 13. The processing machine 100 detects the length of the tool 13 by the tool length sensor 43 at an arbitrary timing such as when the power is turned on or a user instruction. At this time, the respective stages of the X axis, the Y axis, and the Z axis are operated to push the tool 13 attached to the main shaft 5 into the tool length sensor 43. The tool length sensor 43 detects the length of the tool 13 according to the amount by which the tool 13 is pushed by the touch sensor. In this case, the lengths of all the tools stored in the tool magazine 18 may be detected.

  When processing the workpiece W by such a processing machine 100, the processing surface (upper surface) of the workpiece W is moved up and down by the Z-axis stage 23z while rotating the main shaft 5 to which the tool 13 is attached. Is cut with a tool 13. At this time, the machining axis of the workpiece W can be arbitrarily moved by moving the spindle 5 up and down while moving the rotation support portion 19 that supports the workpiece W via the workpiece holding device 50 by the X axis stage 23x and the Y axis stage 23y. Can be cut. In addition, since the workpiece W held by the holding portion 51 can be rotated by the rotation support portion 19, the processing machine 100 can process the front surface and the back surface of the workpiece W.

  In the above description, the main shaft 5 is moved in the Z-axis direction, and the work holding device 50 that holds the work W is moved in the X-axis direction and the Y-axis direction. However, the processing machine, for example, is configured to move the workpiece holding device 50 in the remaining direction by moving the spindle 5 in either the X-axis direction or the Y-axis direction in addition to moving the spindle 5 in the Z-axis direction. It may be. Moreover, the structure which moves the main axis | shaft 5 to 3 directions of X, Y, and Z axis | shafts without moving the workpiece | work holding | maintenance apparatus 50 other than rotation may be sufficient, and a workpiece | work holding | maintenance apparatus is possible without moving the main axis | shaft 5. 50 may be configured to move in three directions of the X, Y, and Z axes. In short, the setting of the moving directions of the spindle 5 and the work holding device 50 is arbitrary.

  Next, the control part 30 of the above-mentioned processing machine 100 is demonstrated using FIG. 3, referring FIG. As shown in FIG. 3, the processing machine 100 includes a control unit 30 and a processing machine body 40. Among these, the control unit 30 includes a CPU 31 which is a calculation means, an input / output port (I / O) 32, motor drivers 33x, 33y, 33z, a spindle controller 34, a data input unit 35, and the like. The CPU 31 performs various calculations based on the input data and signals.

  The I / O 32 is connected to the air blow unit 41, the dust collector 42, and the tool length sensor 43 of the processing machine body 40. In addition, the air blow part 41 blows air on the tool attached to the main shaft 5 to cool the tool and remove chips adhering to the tool. Further, foreign matter such as chips removed from the tool and chips present in the workpiece holding device 50 after processing are sucked from the chip suction unit 44 provided in the workpiece holding device 50 and collected by the dust collecting device 42. Further, the tool length sensor 43 detects the length of the tool as described above and sends a signal to the control unit 30.

  The motor drivers 33x, 33y, 33z provided in the control unit 30 are programs for driving the motors 21x, 21y, 21z based on instructions from the CPU 31. The motors 21x, 21y, and 21z are provided with encoders 45x, 45y, and 45z, respectively. For example, the encoders 45x, 45y, and 45z detect the number of rotations, the rotation angle, and the rotation direction of the rotation shafts of the motors 21x, 21y, and 21z. And the amount (actual position) which each stage 23x, 23y, 23z actually moved by the drive of each motor 21x, 21y, 21z is detected.

  The spindle controller 34 is a program for controlling a rotation speed of the spindle 5 by controlling a motor (not shown) that rotates the spindle 5. In addition, the data input unit 35 includes a shape data input unit 35a, a processing data reading unit 35b, and a data storage unit 35c. Then, the data input by the data input unit 35a and the data read by the reading unit 35b are stored in the data storage unit 35c. The CPU 31 performs various calculations based on the data stored in the data storage unit 35c, and sends commands to the motor drivers 33x, 33y, 33z, and the like.

  As described above, the motors 21x, 21y, and 21z are driven by the motor drivers 33x, 33y, and 33z according to commands calculated by the CPU 31 based on the data input by the data input unit 35. At this time, the CPU 31 causes the data storage unit 35c to store the movement amounts (positions) of the stages 23x, 23y, and 23z instructed to the motor drivers 33x, 33y, and 33z. At the same time, detection results detected by the encoders 45x, 45y, and 45z are also stored in the data storage unit 35c.

  Thus, by controlling each part of the processing machine main body 40 by the control unit 30, the workpiece W held by the workpiece holding device 50 is subjected to predetermined machining as described above. Further, the machining may be performed continuously or the spindle 5 and each stage may be stopped every time a predetermined amount is machined. In any case, the stages 23x, 23y, and 23z move when the stepping motors 21x, 21y, and 21z are driven based on commands.

  The processing machine 100 of the present embodiment configured as described above is an NC machine tool that performs automatic processing by computer control. Specifically, machining data (NC data) is created by a CAD / CAM system using an external terminal such as a personal computer (PC), and the workpiece W is machined by numerical control based on this data. For this purpose, the processing machine 100 is connected to an external terminal such as a PC that instructs the processing machine 100. Note that the processing machine 100 itself may be provided with a computer having a CPU or memory capable of numerical control.

  Here, in the field of dentistry, a processing machine for cutting a single crown block (work) is provided as a dental prosthesis, and a plurality of single crown blocks are provided in a dedicated jig (holding portion). There is a processing machine that can fix and continuously process. When handling such machines, operators (operators, users) generate machining data (NC data) from 3D data using CAM software, and input the machining data to the machine. To do.

  In the case of such a configuration, the operator selects which position block of the holding portion is to be processed at the stage of creating the processing data with the CAM software. Then, attach the block to the holding part. And since the processing coordinate of processing data and the attachment coordinate of a block match, appropriate processing is performed with respect to the processing surface of a workpiece. The present embodiment is not limited to dental use, and can be applied to a processing system and a processing machine that perform processing such as cutting, polishing, and cutting of other workpieces. In the following description, a description will be given using a processing machine for dental processing.

[Work holding part]
In the present embodiment, a plurality of single crown blocks are fixed as a workpiece W by a dedicated jig (holding portion 51), and the workpiece W is assembled to the workpiece holding device 50 for processing. The holding | maintenance part 51 holding such a some workpiece | work (block) W is demonstrated using FIG.

  The holding part 51 has a frame 51a, and a plurality of workpieces W are fixed to the frame 51a by fixing screws 51b. In the case of the present embodiment, there are twelve fixing mechanisms for each workpiece W with respect to one holding part 51. Each of these fixing mechanisms is assigned a work number 51c. The holding portion 51 has a fixing screw hole 51d, and is fixed by inserting a screw into the fixing screw hole 51d and screwing the screw into a predetermined screw hole of the work holding device 50 of the processing machine 100. The

  The processing machine 100 relatively moves the holding unit 51 holding the spindle 5 and the workpiece W in the three directions of the X, Y, and Z axes with the above-described configuration, and rotates the holding unit 51, so that the surface of the workpiece W or A predetermined cutting process is performed on the back surface. That is, the processing machine 100 can process a plurality of processing objects (workpieces W) respectively arranged in a plurality of processing regions. The machining area is a predetermined area in the X-axis direction and the Y-axis direction corresponding to the workpiece number. In this embodiment, it has a maximum of 12 processing regions. That is, the holding portion 51 can attach up to 12 workpieces W. For this reason, the processing machine 100 can process a maximum of 12 workpieces W in a single processing operation.

[Machining system]
Next, the processing system 1000 according to the present embodiment will be described with reference to FIGS. As shown in FIG. 5A, the processing system 1000 of the present embodiment includes the processing machine 100 described above, a PC 200, and a display 300 as display means. The PC 200 causes the processing machine 100 to execute processing based on NC data processed by the processing machine 100 by an execution unit 215 described later. For this reason, the processing system 1000 includes the processing machine 100, the execution unit 215, and the display 300. Since the configuration of the processing machine 100 is as described above, the PC 200 and the display 300 will be mainly described below.

  The PC 200 includes an arithmetic device such as a CPU 200a, and a memory and storage such as a RAM and a ROM. The PC 200 also includes an input device 204 such as a keyboard and a mouse. Note that if the display 300 includes a touch panel, the touch panel is also included in the input device 204. The input device 204 may be any device that can operate the PC 200 such as a keyboard, a mouse, and a touch panel, and may be at least one of them. A dedicated application 203 is installed in the PC 200 in order to input NC data (hereinafter sometimes simply referred to as “NC”) to the data storage unit 35 c of the processing machine 100. The application 203 is stored in the storage 202 as a storage unit.

  The PC 200 is connected to the processing machine 100. In this embodiment, the connection method is Ethernet, but another communication method such as USB or RS232C may be used. The PC 200 is connected to a display 300 and displays a CAM screen 301 and an application screen 302 on the display 300. The CPU 31 of the processing machine transmits the state (data log) of the processing machine to the application 203 of the PC 200 at regular intervals at a request from the application 203.

  The NC to be input to the processing machine 100 is created by the CAM software 201. In this embodiment, the CAM software 201 is installed on the same PC 200 on which the application 203 is installed, and the NC is stored in the storage 202 on the same PC 200. The storage 202 can store a plurality of NCs created by the CAM software 201.

  Since NC is necessary, the CAM software 201 does not need to be installed on the same PC 200 as the application 203. For example, another PC in which CAM software 201 is installed may be connected via a network, the NC may be shared, and the application 203 may access the NC.

  The operator prepares an NC corresponding to the shape in which the workpiece W is desired to be processed in advance. As described with reference to FIG. 4, a maximum of 12 workpieces W can be set in the holding unit 51, but designation of which workpiece number is to be processed is performed at the stage of creating an NC in this embodiment. . Therefore, it is already determined which workpiece number is to be processed at the NC creation stage.

  Here, NC is a file that includes coordinate data relating to a work number (work position, machining area) to be machined, data such as machining speed and rotational speed of the spindle 5. Moreover, NC can include a plurality of data, and machining data for a plurality of workpiece numbers can be included for one NC. However, machining of a workpiece with a certain workpiece number is always performed by one NC. That is, the machining of a workpiece having a certain workpiece number does not extend over a plurality of different NCs. For this reason, machining of one workpiece or a plurality of workpieces is executed in one NC. The processing machine 100 recognizes a processing area corresponding to each work number, and processes the work W in the processing area by operating according to an NC instruction.

  Next, the application 203 will be described with reference to FIG. The application 203 includes a selection unit 211 as an addition unit, an analysis unit 212 as an analysis unit, a registration unit 213 as a registration unit, a notification unit 214 as a notification unit, an execution unit 215 as an execution unit, and a change unit as a change unit. 216 or the like. The processing of the application 203 is executed by the CPU 200a of the PC 200.

  The selection unit 211 is a program that can add an NC to be processed by the processing machine 100. In this embodiment, the selection unit 211 selects an NC to be processed by the processing machine 100 from a plurality of NCs stored in the storage 202. For example, the worker stores a plurality of NCs prepared in advance in the storage 202. Then, when processing is performed by the processing machine 100, an NC to be processed is selected from a plurality of NCs according to the processing order and the workpiece number on which the workpiece W is set. For example, the selection unit 211 displays a plurality of NCs on the application screen 302 of the display 300 so that the operator can select from this screen.

  The analysis unit 212 is a program that analyzes the NC selected by the selection unit 211. Specifically, the analysis unit 212 analyzes which machining area the selected NC corresponds to, ie, the workpiece number.

  The registration unit 213 can register a plurality of NCs that control the processing of the processing machine 100. In the present embodiment, the registration unit 213 is a program that can register the NC selected (added) by the selection unit 211. Specifically, the registration unit 213 is a program that determines whether or not to register the selected NC according to the machining area (work number) specified by the NC analyzed by the analysis unit 212.

  In the case of this embodiment, the notification unit 214 is a program for displaying a predetermined screen on the display 300, and also includes each program of the error display unit 221 and the registration display unit 222. Such a notification unit 214 notifies the operator of predetermined information by causing the display 300 to display a predetermined screen. Note that the notification unit 214 may be a program for notifying the operator of predetermined information by sound or a sound such as a warning sound, or a program for notifying predetermined information by both sound and screen display.

  The execution unit 215 is a program that causes the processing machine 100 to perform processing based on the NC registered by the registration unit 213. That is, the execution unit 215 sends the NC to the data storage unit 35 c of the processing machine 100 and causes the CPU 31 of the processing machine 100 to execute the processing.

  The change unit 216 is a program that can change the machining area (work number) specified by the NC data registered by the registration unit 213.

[Control of processing machine]
Next, control of the processing machine 100 of this embodiment is demonstrated. First, an outline of the control will be described. First, the operator operates the application 203 using the input device 204 to register the NC corresponding to the shape to be machined as a machining reservation. That is, the selection unit 211 selects an NC, and the registration unit 213 registers the NC. Here, when machining a plurality of workpieces, NCs corresponding to a maximum of 12 workpiece numbers are registered. When the registration is completed, the operator presses a processing start button 85 (see FIG. 8 described later) on the application screen 302.

  It should be noted that operations such as buttons displayed on the screen of the display 300 are performed by, for example, clicking on a corresponding portion with the mouse of the input device 204, or if the display 300 is a touch panel, fingers, etc. This is done by touching the corresponding part with. In the following description, operating the application 203 means operating with the input device 204.

  When the processing start button 85 is pressed, the execution unit 215 of the application 203 inputs NC to the processing machine 100 and issues a processing start instruction. The processing machine 100 performs processing according to the received NC when a start instruction is received.

  As described above, when an operator selects an NC, if the operator makes an operation mistake and selects an incorrect NC, machining as expected cannot be performed. That is, since the work number to be machined is determined in the NC, if the selected NC overlaps with the work number of an NC that has already been registered and is waiting for machining, or that is being machined, for example, one Machining cannot be performed as expected, such as when multiple NCs are executed on a workpiece. In addition, when an operator notices a mistake on the way and stops machining, there is a risk that operations such as re-registering NCs or exchanging workpieces may occur.

  Therefore, in the present embodiment, a user interface of the processing machine 100 is provided so that even if such a mistake occurs, an erroneous machining is not performed. Specifically, the notification unit 214 of the application 203 notifies the fact when the selection unit 211 selects a plurality of NCs with overlapping machining areas, that is, with overlapping workpiece numbers. Hereinafter, a description will be given with reference to FIGS. The application 203 is a program that causes the CPU 200a of the PC 200 as a computer to execute a control method of a processing machine having the following selection process (addition process), registration process, execution process, and notification process.

  In order to start processing, the operator creates an NC with the CAM software 201 as a preliminary preparation, and sets a work on the holding unit (work fixing jig) 51 at a position corresponding to the NC. Further, the worker stores a plurality of NCs prepared in advance in the storage 202 of the PC 200. The PC 200 on which the application 203 is installed is connected to the processing machine 100.

  When the advance preparation is completed, the operator operates the application 203 and selects the NC corresponding to the shape to be processed by the selection unit 211 (S101). That is, a plurality of NCs are displayed on the application screen 302 of the display 300, and an operator selects an NC to be processed by the processing machine 100 from this screen (selection process). In the present embodiment, this selection step corresponds to an additional step.

  When the NC is selected by the selection unit 211, the application 203 analyzes the NC by the analysis unit 212, and calculates a work position (machining region and work number) to be machined by the NC (S102). That is, the analysis unit 212 analyzes whether the NC data before being registered by the registration unit 213 is NC data for machining any machining region (work position) among a plurality of machining regions (work positions). . Details of this analysis processing will be described later.

  When the analysis of the workpiece position is completed, the registration unit 213 confirms whether or not it overlaps with the workpiece position specified by the NC registered so far (S103). That is, the registration unit 213 determines that the machining area (work position) specified by the first NC data selected by the selection unit 211 is specified by the second NC data already registered by the registration unit 213. It is determined whether or not it overlaps with (work position). In other words, the registration unit 213, which is also a comparison unit, processes the NC data machining area (work position) registered by the registration unit 213 and the NC data machining area before registration (work position) analyzed by the analysis unit 212. ).

  If the workpiece positions do not overlap, that is, if the workpiece position specified by the first NC data selected by the selection unit 211 is vacant (Yes in S103), the registration unit 213 performs the correct operation. It is determined that there is, and the first NC data is registered (S104, registration step).

  The registration display unit 222 displays the work number specified by the registered NC data in the reservation list 83 (see FIG. 8) on the application screen 302 of the display 300 (S105). At this time, information on the registered NC is also displayed on the work number confirmation screen 82 (see FIG. 8). Thereafter, when the processing start button 85 on the application screen 302 is pressed, the execution unit 215 causes the processing machine 100 to perform processing based on the reservation list 83 (S106, execution step).

  On the other hand, if the work position is duplicated in S103, that is, if the work position specified by the NC data selected by the selection unit 211 is not empty (No in S103), the registration unit 213 receives the NC data. Do not register. Then, the error display unit 221 of the notification unit 214 displays an error on the application screen 302 of the display 300 (S107). In other words, when the selection unit 211 selects a plurality of NC data with overlapping work numbers, the notification unit 214 displays that fact, that is, an error on the display 300.

  In the configuration of the present embodiment, since there is always one NC for one workpiece, it is considered that it is a work mistake that an NC that processes the same position is selected. For this reason, if an NC that processes the same position as the NC registered work position is selected, a selection error is made, the operator is notified of this, and the NC registration is unsuccessful.

  Specifically, the notification unit 214 is configured such that the work number specified by the first NC data selected by the selection unit 211 is already selected by the selection unit 211 and registered by the registration unit 213. If it overlaps with the work number specified by the NC data, the fact is notified. In the present embodiment, the error display unit 221 of the notification unit 214 displays an error display 303 on the display 300 as shown in FIG. The error display 303 is, for example, an NC name and a display indicating a selection error.

  As described above, the work number or a selection error is displayed on the display 300 depending on the result of whether or not the registration of the NC by the registration unit 213 is possible. That is, the display 300 changes the display based on the comparison result by the registration unit 213.

  The execution unit 215 causes the processing machine 100 to execute processing based on the NC data registered immediately before the first NC data including the work number overlapping with the second NC data, and then stops the processing of the processing machine 100. To do. For example, when a plurality of NC data has already been registered until the first NC data is selected, the processing machine 100 is stopped after performing processing based on the plurality of NC data.

  The execution unit 215 may stop the processing of the processing machine 100 immediately after selecting the first NC data or displaying an error. Alternatively, since the first NC data is not registered, the processing based on the first NC data is not performed, and when NC data that does not have a duplicate work number is registered after the first NC data, Processing based on the NC data may be performed without stopping the processing. In short, if the processing based on the first NC data is not executed, the processing may be stopped or the processing may be continued.

  In the above description, it is determined whether or not the registered NC data and the work position overlap before the NC data registration. However, the selected NC data is not determined to be duplicated. Before performing machining based on NC data, it is determined whether or not the NC data that has already been machined overlaps the workpiece position without opening / closing the door or replacing the workpiece. Also good.

  Specifically, when NC is selected by the selection unit 211, the analysis unit 212 analyzes the NC and registers NC data. When the machining start button 85 is pressed, before the execution unit 215 causes the machining machine 100 to perform machining, the registration unit 213 that is also a comparison unit performs the machining operation on the NC data workpiece position that has already been machined. Compare the NC data work position to be executed.

[NC analysis processing]
Next, NC analysis processing in S102 of FIG. 6A will be described with reference to FIG. When the NC is selected in S101 of FIG. 6A, the analysis unit 212 of the application 203 opens the NC file (S201). Then, this file is read (S202). For example, one line is read out every 100 lines. That is, since the number of lines in the file is enormous, the lines in the file are read out. Thereby, the analysis speed can be improved. However, since the analysis accuracy decreases if the width of the thinning is too large, reading is performed every 100 rows in this embodiment, but the number of thinning rows can be set as appropriate.

  The analysis unit 212 reads the file in this way, and determines whether or not the file has been read, that is, whether or not there is data (S203). If it can be read (Yes in S203), coordinate analysis is performed and the work position indicated by the NC is taken out (S204). Then, it is confirmed to which work number the work position corresponds, and the counter of the corresponding work number is incremented (S205).

Here, the confirmation of the work number in S205 is performed by determining which work number is processed by the position taken out in S204. For example, consider the following conditions.
Work number 1 (X axis: within the range of −45.25 to −30.75, Y axis: within the range of 10.5 to 28.5)
Work number 2 (X axis: within the range of −26.25 to −11.75, Y axis: within the range of 10.5 to 28.5)
Work No. 3 (X axis: within -7.25 to 7.25, Y axis: within 10.5 to 28.5)

  In this case, if the coordinate analysis result in S204 is “X axis: −35.00, Y axis: 20.00”, it is within the range of work number 1, and therefore the counter of work number 1 is incremented. Similarly, when the coordinate analysis result in S204 is “X axis: −13.24, Y axis: 22.19”, the counter of the work number 2 is incremented, and the coordinate analysis result in S204 is “X axis”. : 0.00, Y axis: 12.37 ", the work number 3 counter is incremented.

  This process is continued until all the NCs are read (S202 to S205). When all the NC data is read (No in S203), the work number counter is checked, and it is determined that the work number corresponding to the counter exceeding the threshold is the work number to be processed in NC (S206).

[Example of application operations]
Next, an example of the operation of the application 203 using the application screen 302 of this embodiment will be described with reference to FIG. 6A and FIG. The application screen 302 displayed on the display 300 (FIG. 5A) is composed of a reservation screen 81 and a work number confirmation screen 82.

  When selecting an NC as in S101 of FIG. 6A, the operator selects an NC to be processed from a screen that shows a plurality of NCs stored in advance in the storage 202 and displays a reservation. Drag and drop to the screen 81. Then, the application 203 executes NC analysis as in S102.

  When the analysis of the NC is completed and the work numbers specified by the selected NC do not overlap (Yes in S103), the information on the NC is registered in the reservation list 83 (S104). The reservation list 83 displays information such as NC name, work number, status, and progress. FIG. 8 shows the time when four NCs are registered. When the work number specified by the selected NC is duplicated in S103 of FIG. 6A (No in S103), the NC is not registered and is not displayed in the reservation list 83.

  The work number confirmation screen 82 includes work position information 87 and work information 88. In the work position information 87, a work specified by each registered NC is displayed at a position corresponding to each work number of the holding unit 51. In other words, at the stage where no work is registered on the reservation screen 81, only the holding unit 51 is displayed in the work position information 87. Each time an NC is registered, the workpiece having the workpiece number to be machined by the NC is displayed in the workpiece position information 87. As shown in the reservation list 83 of FIG. 8, when four NCs are registered, the workpiece numbers 1, 3, 4, 5, 8, 10, and 12 are processed, so that the workpiece numbers are displayed. The As described above, the display 300 displays whether the NC data registered by the registration unit 213 is to process any one of the plurality of processing areas (work numbers).

  In addition, the workpiece displayed in the workpiece position information 87 is changed in color or displayed depending on whether the workpiece is being machined, when machining of the workpiece is completed, or when the workpiece is waiting for machining. It may be made translucent so that these cases can be distinguished. Further, the posture of the workpiece such as whether the surface of the workpiece is processed or the back surface is processed, or the orientation of the workpiece may be displayed.

  In the work information 88, information of a work to be processed by the registered NC is displayed. The work information includes information such as a work size (S, M, L), a color (A42, A43, etc.), and a direction (V, H). If no such work information is added to the NC, it is not displayed.

  Further, the NC displayed on the reservation screen 81 is displayed as it is even after the processing based on the NC is completed, and remains until the worker deletes the file. This is because the operator confirms the contents of the NC that has been processed. In this case, the NC information remains on the work number confirmation screen 82. In addition, you may make it erase | eliminate NC which finished processing automatically.

  With these pieces of information, the worker can know at a glance what kind of work should be installed for each work number. In the state where the above four NCs are registered, if the operator makes an operation mistake and selects an NC having the same work number as that of the already registered NC, it is determined No in S103, and the process proceeds to S107. An error is displayed and the NC is not registered.

  When the registration of the NC is completed as described above, the machining is started by the operator pressing the machining start button 85. When the processing is started, the application 203 executes the processing in order from the reservation list 83. That is, in the case shown in the drawing, the machining is started from the NC of “nc_test_1”. When processing is started, the status item in the reservation list 83 is switched from waiting for execution to processing. Then, the progress of the reservation list 83 is displayed according to the processing progress. When the machining is completed, the progress of the NC that has been machined is 100%, and the state is completed.

  In addition, when the operator wants to change the order of execution of machining by a plurality of NCs displayed in the reservation list 83, drag and drop items waiting for execution in the reservation list 83, and change the order by changing the order. Can be changed.

  Further, the reservation screen 81 also displays a status display 84 indicating the status of the processing machine 100 and a processing stop button 86 for the operator to stop processing of the processing machine 100 manually. In the case of the illustrated example, since NC of “nc_test_1” is executed, the display of the status display 84 is “processing”. Further, when it is desired to stop the processing of the processing machine 100 during the processing or before the processing of the next NC is started, the operator presses the processing stop button 86 to stop the operation of the processing machine 100.

[Work number conversion function]
In the case of the configuration of the present embodiment described above, the work number is determined when NC is output. For this reason, if NC is output with a different work number due to an operator's mistake, the NC must be recreated. Therefore, in the present embodiment, the machining area (work number) specified by the NC data registered by the registration unit 213 can be changed by the changing unit 216 (FIG. 5B) of the application 203. Even if such a mistake is made, the work man-hours for rework are reduced. FIG. 9 is a flowchart of the work number conversion function for changing the work number by the changing unit 216 as described above.

  In the work number conversion function, for example, when an NC is registered in the reservation list 83 and a number different from the originally scheduled work number is displayed on the work number confirmation screen 82, the reservation screen 81 or the work number The work number can be changed on the confirmation screen 82. When the change is made, the conversion process in the flowchart of FIG. 9 is performed.

  First, the changing unit 216 creates a coordinate conversion formula for the front and back surfaces from the workpiece number before conversion and the workpiece number after conversion (S301). For example, it is assumed that an NC created in a schedule for machining workpiece number 1 is registered in the reservation list and confirmed on the workpiece number confirmation screen, and is an NC machining workpiece number 3. The operator performs an operation for changing the work number from 3 to 1 for this NC. When this operation is performed, the changing unit 216 obtains equations necessary for the respective parallel movements on the front surface and the back surface from work numbers 3 to 1. There is no problem even if the expression is simply X + A (X: coordinate, A: offset to the coordinate after conversion) or parallel movement by affine transformation.

  Then, the changing unit 216 opens the NC file (S302) and reads line by line (S303). At this time, if the line information (data) cannot be read (No in S304), it is assumed that all the NC conversions are completed, and the process is terminated.

  On the other hand, if data can be read in S304 (Yes in S304), first, a front / back analysis is performed (S305). That is, it is confirmed whether the read NC is a code for instructing to process the front surface or the back surface of the workpiece. Then, the coordinates designated by the NC are analyzed (S306). If the analysis result is the surface (Yes in S307), the coordinates obtained when the coordinates analyzed in S306 are translated by the surface conversion formula created in S301 are obtained (S308). Then, the changing unit 216 rewrites the NC analyzed in S306 with an NC that indicates the coordinates after conversion obtained in S308 (S309).

  Similarly, in the case of the back side in S307 (No in S307), the coordinates when the coordinates analyzed in S306 are translated by the conversion formula for the back side created in S301 are obtained (S310). Then, the changing unit 216 rewrites the NC analyzed in S306 with an NC that indicates the coordinates after conversion obtained in S310 (S309). By performing such NC rewriting on all the NCs, an NC whose coordinates are converted is completed.

  In the above description, when a number different from the originally scheduled work number is displayed on the work number confirmation screen 82, the work number is changed on the reservation screen 81 or the work number confirmation screen 82. However, if the work position is duplicated (No in S103 in FIG. 6), the work number may be changed. In that case, the notification unit 214 displays a selection button on the display as to whether or not to convert the work number together with the error display 303.

  In the above description, the operator performs the operation of changing the work number to change the work number. However, when it is determined that the work position is duplicated, the changing unit 216 duplicates the work number. It is also possible to identify one unassigned work number (an empty work number) and use the identified work number as the work number after conversion to perform the processing in the flowchart of FIG.

  When a plurality of non-overlapping work numbers are specified, a plurality of work numbers may be displayed on the display, and the operator may perform an operation for changing the work number.

[Example of log screen]
The application 203 of this embodiment regularly uses a data log (hereinafter simply referred to as “log”) of the connected processing machine 100. The application 203 can visually display this log information to the worker on the application screen 302. Therefore, the application screen 302 can be switched between the screen shown in FIG. 8 and the screen shown in FIG. FIG. 10 is an example of a log screen that visually displays a log.

  The log display screen of FIG. 10 includes a start date 91, an end date 92, a log analysis button 93, a timeline display 94, a milling bar length graph 95, an error count graph 96, an error details list 97, and a mini map 99. . The worker first decides the period for which he wants to check the log. The period is input as the start date 91 and end date 92. In FIG. 10, a log from January 5, 2018 to February 1, 2018 is designated.

  When the period is specified, the log analysis button 93 is pressed. Then, a timeline display 94, a milling bar length graph 95, an error count graph 96, an error details list 97, and a mini map 99 are displayed.

  In the timeline display 94, the state of the processing machine 100, the error that has occurred, the NC registration status, the processing status, and the information on the milling bar (tool 13) can be confirmed for each hour. In the timeline display 94 and the mini map 99, the horizontal axis is time, and for example, the time to be displayed can be changed by a mouse operation provided in the PC 200 or the like.

  The mini map 99 is displayed so that the same attribute as the event on the timeline display 94 can be seen in the period specified by the start date 91 and the end date 92 as described above. The display method can be variously modified so long as it is displayed so as to show the correspondence such as color, shape, and combination of color and shape.

  The timeline display 94 enlarges and displays details of the range selected by the range selection unit 98 on the mini map 99. The range selection unit 98 is slidable on the mini map 99, for example, so that the operator can select a predetermined range of time. The range selection unit 98 may change the time range displayed on the timeline display 94. Note that the mini map 99 may display only a part of information (for example, the processing state), and the time line display 94 may display the part of information and other information.

  The milling bar length graph 95 can confirm the transition of the length of the milling bar by a graph. As described above, the length of the milling bar (tool 13) is periodically measured by the tool length sensor 43. In the illustrated example, the transition of the length of the milling bar in the range selected by the range selection unit 98 on the mini map 99 (period displayed in the timeline display 94) is shown. The transition of the length of the milling bar during the period specified by the start date 91 and the end date 92 (the period displayed on the mini map 99) may be shown. In this case, the transition of the length of the milling bar in either the period displayed on the timeline display 94 or the period displayed on the mini map 99 may be selected.

  The error total graph 96 displays each error that occurred within the period specified by the start date 91 and the end date 92 in a pie chart as described above. From this graph, you can see at a glance which error occurs most. The date and time of the error that occurred in the error detail list 97 can be confirmed. The door opening is when the opening / closing door 102 shown in FIG. 1 is detected by a sensor (not shown). This door opening is usually considered to be one in which an operator opens and closes the opening / closing door 102 by exchanging workpieces, etc. Therefore, the door opening may not be counted in the error counting graph 96.

  Examples of errors include an abnormal milling bar such as when the length of the milling bar becomes abnormally short, an abnormal motor such as an increase in the load on any of the motors of the processing machine 100, An abnormal stop, for example, when 100 is urgently stopped, can be mentioned.

  In the present embodiment, by using the log display screen, the operator can easily grasp the operation contents performed so far. Then, by analyzing the log, a failure sign of the processing machine 100 can be determined, and the failure can be prevented in advance by displaying an interlock and a warning screen. As an example, the milling bar length is analyzed by a log, and when it is shorter than a predetermined length, it is determined as abnormal. At this time, if the rate of change in the length of the milling bar is abrupt, the milling bar may be broken, so a warning screen is displayed, etc. To be notified. If the rate of change in the length of the milling bar is moderate, it is determined that the milling bar is due to wear and notifies the operator that the milling bar should be replaced. In the present embodiment, in order to be able to display the length of the milling bar, when the power is turned on, the processing machine performs a milling bar replacement operation, and a plurality of milling bars that can be used in the tool holder. The length is measured by a touch sensor.

  As described above, in the case of the present embodiment, it is possible to realize a user interface of a processing machine that is easy for an operator to use. Specifically, in the operation of selecting an NC, if an NC that processes the same position as the NC registered work position is selected, a selection error is generated and the operator is notified of this. ing. That is, when the selection unit 211 selects a plurality of NC data with overlapping work numbers, the notification unit 214 of the application 203 displays that fact, that is, an error. If the work number specified by the NC data registered so far and the work number specified by the selected NC data overlap, the execution unit 215 processes the selected NC data. I do not do it.

  For this reason, the operator (user) can grasp that the wrong NC data has been selected, and an easy-to-use user interface can be realized. In addition, it is possible to prevent the processing machine 100 from performing processing with incorrect NC data, to suppress the processing that cannot be performed as expected, and to reduce troubles such as NC re-registration and workpiece replacement due to a mistake. In addition, when the work number is wrong, as described with reference to FIG.

  Further, since the application 203 can display the application screen 302 shown in FIG. 8, the operator can easily grasp the status of the registered NC work number and the like, and furthermore, how each work number is assigned. You can see at a glance how to install the correct workpiece.

  Furthermore, since the application 203 can display the log display screen shown in FIG. 10, it is easy for the operator to visually grasp information such as a machining state in a desired period. It becomes easier to predict the replacement time. As described above, the application 203 of the present embodiment can realize a user interface that is easy for the operator to use.

<Second Embodiment>
A second embodiment will be described with reference to FIGS. 11 and 12. In the present embodiment, the holding unit 51 (see FIGS. 2 and 4) of the processing machine 100A includes a workpiece detection unit 46 that detects that a workpiece is set at the position of each workpiece number. Since other configurations and operations are the same as those in the first embodiment, description and illustration of the same configurations will be omitted or simplified, and the following description will be focused on portions that are different from the first embodiment.

  As illustrated in FIG. 11, the processing machine 100 </ b> A includes a workpiece detection unit 46 as a detection unit that can detect that a workpiece (work) is disposed in a processing region (a position corresponding to a workpiece number) of the holding unit 51. Have The work detection unit 46 is arranged at a position corresponding to each work number, and can detect that the work is actually set at that position.

  Such control of the processing machine 100A of the present embodiment will be described with reference to the flowchart of FIG. In FIG. 12, only S108 is added to the flowchart of FIG. For this reason, since S101-S107 are the same as FIG. 6, description is abbreviate | omitted.

  In S103, when the work position (work number) specified by the NC data selected by the selection unit 211 is empty (Yes in S103), the application 203 determines whether or not a work is actually set to the work number. Is determined from the detection result of the workpiece detection unit 46 (S108). If the workpiece detection unit 46 has detected a workpiece (Yes in S108), the registration unit 213 registers this NC data (S104).

  On the other hand, when the workpiece detection unit 46 does not detect the workpiece in S108 (No in S108), the registration unit 213 does not register the first NC data, and the error display unit 221 of the notification unit 214 displays the application of the display 300. An error is displayed on the screen 302 (S107). This error display may be a display indicating that the work is not set to the selected work number, or may be the display shown in FIG.

  That is, in the case of the present embodiment, the registration unit 213 specifies the machining area (work position) specified by the third NC data selected by the selection unit 211 based on the already registered fourth NC data. Even if it does not overlap with the machining area, the third NC data is not registered if the workpiece detection unit 46 does not detect the workpiece in the machining area specified by the third NC data.

  In the case of this embodiment, when the user forgets to set a workpiece, this is displayed, and a user interface of the processing machine 100A that is easy for the operator to use can be realized.
