Abstract

PURPOSE:To make it easy to cope with the change of designs or the addition of a new design, by controlling the movement coordinates of a machine through the registration of coordinates started on a worked matter, at a reference coordinates parameter file, by a working group, and through the registration of the register number and the assembly of the classification code of the work ing group at the worked matter. CONSTITUTION:N, X, Y and X coordinates, Y coordinates of relative movement quantities OP1, P1P2,P2P3,...Pn-1Pn, are registered at a reference coordinates parameter file. Base plate outer form sizes X, Y are used for transport and positioning at the time of the base plate being loaded at a machine. The data of this parameter file are provided at every component real furnishing informa tion for the electronic base plate. Also, at a working data file for every product, the parameter of the reference coordinates file is drawn out of the registration number N only by designating the product ID, and the working of the product can be done by applying a working code C to the parameter. Also, when the classification code of no working is provided as '0', the standarization of the reference coordinates parameter is possible.

Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION [Field of Industrial Application] The present invention relates to a mechanical coordinate control method for performing coordinate position driving such as in electronic board assembly.

[Conventional technology]

In conventional machine coordinate control methods, the operating coordinates of the machine are numerically registered and controlled for each workpiece, or
Alternatively, numerical values are written directly in the program to generate and control the machine's operating coordinates.

[Problem to be solved by the invention]

The conventional control method described above requires changes in the design of the workpiece,
In order to add a new design, it is necessary to register numerical data for all products or create programs for all products, which makes it extremely difficult to respond to changes and additions, especially when dealing with a wide variety of products.

[Means to solve the problem]

The machine coordinate control method of the present invention groups machining contents,
registering coordinates at which a machining group starts on a workpiece in a reference coordinate parameter file; registering a set of classification codes of the machining group and a registration number of the reference coordinate parameter file for the workpiece; This configuration controls the operating coordinates of the machine.

〔Example〕

Next, embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings. Note that the explanation will be given here by taking as an example the insertion of components into an electronic board. FIG. 1 is a conceptual diagram of the contents of the reference coordinate parameter file. N is the registration number of the parameter file, 0 is the machine origin, and X and Y are the width and length of the external dimensions of the board. Pfi (P+~Pto) is the position on the substrate where each processing group starts. Actually, the parameter file contains N, X, Y and relative movement amount OPl.

Register the X coordinates and X coordinates of PHP2, P2 P3, -P++-s Pn. The board external dimensions X and Y are used for transport 1 positioning when loading the board into the machine.

The data of this parameter file is provided for each component mounting information of the electronic board. For example, even if 001 and 002 in this figure have the same substrate external dimensions, the starting coordinates of the processing group are different, so they are registered as separate data. In this way, it is possible to accommodate different mounting positions without changing the program.

FIG. 2 is a conceptual diagram of the contents of the processing data file for each product. ■ is the product ID, C is a set of classification codes of processing groups, and N is the registration number of the reference coordinate parameter file. By simply specifying the product ID, the parameters of the reference coordinate file can be retrieved from the registration number N, and the processing code C can be applied to the parameters to process the product. Also,
If the classification code without processing is set as O, it is possible to standardize the reference coordinate parameters. For example, product 1 in this diagram
and Product 2 use the same reference coordinates 001, but the component mounting state for Product 1 is in the fourth column from the left, and for Product 2, the fifth column from the left is unprocessed. By setting common reference coordinate parameters in this way, even newly designed products can be
All you need to do is register the processing code and specify the registration number of the reference coordinate parameter file.

〔Effect of the invention〕

As explained above, according to the present invention, it is easy to respond to changes in the design of the workpiece or the addition of new designs, and there is no need for specific skills such as registering machine control data or changing programs, and from the design This has the effect of speeding up production. The control method of the present invention is particularly effective when handling a wide variety of products whose designs have been standardized.
