Abstract

PURPOSE:To change easily a guide display by executing the guide display to a part corresponding to designated word contents in an NC instruction format of an image of an object to be worked, which is displayed on a display device. CONSTITUTION:An NC program is stored in an NC program file 4, and various editing operations are executed from an operation input device 5. A guide display control part 2 sends an editing command 7 to an editing part 1 by an editing operation from the operation input device 5, and sends out a number of a designated editing position (cursor) in an NC instruction format, and its word contents to a guide display control part 2, as information 8. By this control part 2, which part of an object to be worked is being shown is derived, and a guide display is executed on a display device 3.In this way, an editing function of the NC program and the guide display can be connected easily, and a simple interactive function can be realized.

Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] [Industrial Application Field] The present invention relates to a numerical control device for machine tools (hereinafter referred to as NC).
Regarding.

[Conventional technology]

Conventionally, when editing an NC program in an NC, it was common to simply edit only alphanumeric characters, and the NC program also had a simple format, so it was relatively easy to understand what the program meant. For example, “GOIXIG
OOFloo ” +7) The instructions say that the X-axis is to be cut at a feed rate of 100 mm per minute.

However, in recent years, with the improvement of NO functions, the number of NCs that provide more advanced movements with more complex formats has increased.1. Te! l

0 to 20OHOIT103MO3L100P58G "Nato" means the cutting start point, depth of cut in each cycle, tool compensation amount, tool number, spindle mode cutting cycle number, etc. In the future, the number of commands that set such complex sequences will increase. For this purpose, it is desirable to have a function that guides users as to what the input setting values mean.

[Problem that the invention seeks to solve]

Until now, in order to output a guide according to the editing operation of the NC program, it was necessary to include a guide display function in the editing function itself, and it was not possible to easily change the guide display.

[Means for solving problems]

The present invention provides a guide display for the part of the image of the workpiece displayed on the display device that corresponds to the content of the specified word in the NC command format. It is designed so that you can immediately understand what it means.

That is, the NC of the present invention inputs the contents of the word specified from the outside in the NC command format displayed on the display device and the information of the image of the workpiece also displayed on the display section. The present invention is characterized by comprising a guide display control section that determines which part of the image the content of the word corresponds to and displays a guide corresponding to the content of the word on the image.

[For production]

Common editing functions include moving the cursor to the word before or after the specified word, erasing the specified word, replacing the specified word with a newly entered word, and moving the specified word to the next word. Since there are basic functions such as inserting a new word into a file, guide display processing can be realized very simply by providing the guide display control section described above.

〔Example〕

Embodiments of the wooden invention will be described with reference to the drawings.

FIG. 1 is a block diagram of the display portion of the NC according to the invention.

NC program file 4 stores an NC program. 4 each from the operation input device 5! Editing operations are performed. The guide display control unit 2 is an operation input device i! According to the editing operation input from 5, the editing operation command 7 is sent to the editing section 1.0 The editing section 1 then sends the specified editing position in the NC command format (hereinafter referred to as a cursor).
The digit M (cursor position number) and the word content of the cursor position number are output to the guide display control section 2 as information 8.

The guide display control unit 2 inputs the cursor position number, word content, and information 9 of the image of the workpiece displayed on the display device i3, and determines whether the content of the designated word is the image of the workpiece. Find out which part it shows,
The guide display control section 2 performs a guide display for the specified word 2 and the above-mentioned part of the image on the display section 3. Note that this guide display control section 2 performs a guide display when there is no part corresponding to the content of the specified word. The content of the word may be displayed in characters on the screen, and the display specifications (whether to display or not, vertical and horizontal characters, etc.) in the editing section 1 can be determined by the initial setting signal 6 from the guide display control section 2. ) can be determined.

Next, the operation of this embodiment will be explained with reference to a diagram showing the screen contents of the display device 3 shown in FIG.

Now, suppose that the editing specified position is at Y30G'' in the NC command format on the screen.At this time, editing section 1 displays the guide display control section 2 as display information 8, indicating the cursor position number in the block (in this case, ゛2~). and the contents of that word (-Y2O2'' in this case).

The guide display control unit 2 selects these cursor position numbers ″′2~
Input the word content -Y300~ and information on the image of the workpiece displayed in the lower half of the screen, determine that the word content 'Y300' indicates the length of the top side,
For this portion and the word "'' Y300~, a guide display is performed, for example, →~.

Therefore, it can be immediately seen that the designated word "''Y2O2" indicates the length of the upper side of the workpiece.

〔Effect of the invention〕

As explained above, the present invention has made it possible to very easily connect the basic and complex function of editing an NC program with the additional function of guide display, which requires a greater number of types depending on the purpose of use. This makes it possible to provide an extremely easy-to-use editing function for NO commands, which will become more complex and sophisticated in the future, and to realize a simple interactive function. Furthermore, since there is no need to change the basic part of the editing function of the NC program that requires complicated processing, it is possible to prevent new functional failures from being introduced due to the addition of additional guide displays.
