[Conventional technology]

As a representative of a highly flexible automated production system, FMS is now in the practical stage. In the FMS, the computer operates the schedule plan, machining setup plan, tool supply plan, etc. online, but regarding the structure of the machining information creation device that displays the CAD data corresponding to the higher level and downloads it to the FMS. , which currently lacks consistency, is fixed, partial, and fragmentary.

[Problem that the invention seeks to solve]

Most current CAD/CAM systems are fixed, partial, fragmented, and inconsistent. Even if it were a series, the reality is that it lacks a system, lacks flexibility, and is not put to practical use. In other words, a CAD/CAM system that is suitable for a production system that incorporates cutting technology has not yet been established, making it an incomplete CAD/CAM system. Machining information is not just NC data necessary for automatic operation of NC machine tools. The decision as to what kind of concept and what kind of machining method to use for machining a part is greatly reflected in the NC data that is created. The main purpose of current CAM is already to automatically create processing information for parts placed on NC machine tools, but it has not yet taken into consideration the evaluation of production methods in FMS and the like. On the other hand, CAD parts drawing data and material drawing data are currently nothing more than processing information that determines the final result, but in order to create NC data using CAD information, it is necessary to It is necessary to include information on cutting technology such as setting up the process, determining process steps, etc.), machining methods, arranging, combining, and determining parts in the optimal way on the bullet, and so-called setup methods. When applying tools, most of them are matched one-to-one with the workpiece, without considering the possibility of integrating common tools or using alternative tools, which lacks versatility, practicality, and flexibility.

The present invention was proposed in view of the above circumstances, and includes:
It is an object of the present invention to provide a tool integrated processing device for an automatic processing machine that is highly flexible and practical and can be used as a part of a processing information creation device required for FMS and the like.

An integrated standard data memory that stores standard data, a consideration standard setting section that sets consideration items and rankings based on the machining content data for each tool and consideration standard data, and a review standard setting unit that compares the machining content data for each tool with each standard data.
A tool integration processing device for an automatic processing machine, comprising: a tool integration determination unit that determines whether or not tool integration is possible; and an integration instruction data setting unit that sets integration instruction data based on the determined result. It is.

[Effect]

In the present invention, machining content data for each tool is input,
In accordance with the integrated standard data, it is examined whether cutting is possible with the same tool or not, and the results are output as integrated instruction data. For example, consideration of integration includes machining depth, tool diameter, main cutting edge width, main cutting edge angle, 1 minor cutting edge angle (tip angle)
This is done for some or all of the items such as , pitch, and finish, and the items that need to be examined and their rankings are indicated by standard data. In principle, the tool integration determination section compares each item with the allowable tolerance, but some items require calculations, and the machinable depth requires unique reference data.

Although the tool integration processing device according to the present invention mainly relates to the integration instruction processing section 27 in the above machining information creation system, it goes without saying that the tool integration processing device is not necessarily limited thereto.

FIG. 1 is a block diagram showing an example of a tool integrated processing apparatus according to the present invention. In FIG. 1, the tool integrated processing device includes a cput that also serves as the central processing unit of the host device, a display with a keyboard 2, its input/output board 2a, and a tool-by-tool machining content data memory that stores machining content data for each tool. 33, an integration standard data memory 70 that stores reference data regarding integration processing, a review criteria setting unit 71 that sets review items and rankings, a tool integration determination unit 72 that determines whether tools can be integrated, and a judgment and an integrated instruction data setting section 73 that sets instruction data based on the obtained results.

, machinable depth reference data 7Qb, and allowable tolerance reference data 7°OC.

The review standard setting unit 71 includes a review data setting unit 71a that sets review items, and a review order setting unit 71b that sets a review order.

The tool integration determination section 72 is a tool radius calculation section 72a.

It consists of a tool diameter comparison and determination section 72b, an allowable tolerance determination section 72c, and a machinable depth determination section 72d.

The integrated instruction data setting section 73 includes an integrated instruction data setting section 73a that sets data, and an integrated instruction data memory 34 that stores the set data.

FIG. 3 is a flowchart showing the operating procedure of the above device. Hereinafter, the above device will be explained in detail according to the operating procedure.

When the CPUI commands the start of a flow,
In the 0th stage, the review criteria data 70a is first read into the review criteria setting unit 71, and the review criteria are set.
As the 0th stage, scheduled tool-by-tool machining content data 33 are read in the order of machining.

The machining content data for each tool 33 is file data in which machining content of items as shown in FIG. 5 is set for each tool for the machining area as shown in FIG.
(A) shown in the figure is the radial machining allowance, (B) is the seat radial machining allowance, and (C) is the depth direction machining allowance, respectively.
These are shown in N1114 to Nct16 in the figure. On the other hand, the consideration standard data 70a determines the items to be examined and their rankings for each tool code, and as shown in FIG. If the tool code of item No. 4 in Fig. 5 of the input tool-by-tool machining content data 33 is FM, the first line of the examination standard data shown in Fig. 6 is applied, and the tool code is SM. If so, the second line of the consideration standard data will be applied. The following seven items are to be considered.

(Force) Tool diameter (K) Main cut rotation (R) Main cut edge angle (K) Minor cut edge angle (Point angle) (K) Pinch (S) Machinable depth comb) Finish level These items are tools Indicates different parts depending on the type of
For example, if the tool code is FM (face mill), the 7th

(ki), (ri), (ke), and (su), and in the case of SM (shell mill), (force), (ki), and (ke) are shown in Figure 8 (a) and (bl). ), (su), l3R
In the case of (polling), among the data shown in Figure 9, (
Refers to power), (ki), (ke), and (su). In other words, the items to be considered for tool integration differ depending on the type of tool. Therefore.

If the tool code is different, the items that require special consideration and their rankings will also be different, and the items set in the consideration data setting section 71a at the 0th stage of the flow are the tool diameter if the tool code is FM. , finishing level, and machinable depth.For BR, there are four items: tool diameter, finishing level, main cutting edge, and machinable depth.

Furthermore, the order set by the consideration order setting unit 71b at the 0th stage of the flow is also the above-mentioned order.

Now, if the tool diameter is among the set items, this is usually the first item to be considered. FIG. 10 is an explanatory diagram showing the principle of tool diameter examination, in which the data of the first FM (A) is first read into the tool integration determination section 72, and then the data of the second FM (A) is read.
This paper shows a study to determine whether it is possible to integrate data of MCB) that are read (continuously or intermittently). Figure 10 (in al, F
The tool diameter of M (A) is Da, the diameter tolerance is ±Ca, and FM
It is sufficient to consider the allowable tool diameters of each of (B) as Da±Ca and Db±cb. The inner diameter limit of the above tolerance range is dla, dlb, and the outer diameter limit is d2.
If a + d2b, one inner diameter limit is larger than the other outer diameter limit d2a ≦dlb and d2b ≦
In the case of dla, integration is out of the question, and for the following four cases where integration is possible, a common tool diameter and diameter tolerance C
The formula for calculating is established.

In the 0th stage of the flow, the tool radius calculation section 72a performs the above calculation, and sends the calculated D and ±C to the tool radius comparison and determination section 72b. In the 0th stage of the flow, the tool radius comparison and determination section 72b determines NG that integration is not possible if the tool radius does not match the machining area and if one inner radius limit is larger than the other outer radius limit. A signal is generated, and only when integration is possible, the calculated tolerance ±C is sent to the allowable tolerance determination unit 72c. Other study items are sequentially sent to the allowable tolerance judgment section 72c from the study standard judgment section 71, and on the other hand,
The allowable tolerance standard data 70c as shown in Fig. 11 is also input, and in the 0th stage of the flow, (excluding (i) machinable depth (described later) and (i) finishing degree (not tolerance) (force) tool diameter , (g) Main cutting rotation, (r) Main cutting edge angle, (
(e) Compare each item of the minor cutting edge angle (point angle) and (e) pinch to determine whether or not they can be integrated. If any one item cannot be integrated, an NG signal is issued, and only if all items can be integrated, the data is sent to the integration instruction data setting section 73. The determination of the allowable tolerance indicates that, for example, the common tool diameter tolerance ±C obtained in the calculation of the integrated tool diameter described above must not be less than the allowable tolerance reference data. In other words, the tool diameter tolerance ±C cannot exist in an actual tool. (S) The machinable depth is determined in stage 0 of the flow by comparing it with the machinable depth reference data 70b in the machinable depth determining section 72d. As shown in FIG. 12, the machinable depth reference data 70b shows the standard depth, the increment amount, and its magnification; for example, in FM, the magnification of the increment amount is 1;
Incremental range is 160~210.210~260...
・The magnification is 2 in SM, so the increment range is 250.
~300.300~400,400~600...
・It becomes. Therefore, as a result of comparing the two pieces of data, if the machinable depths of both pieces fall within the same increment range, it is determined that the two pieces of data can be integrated.

As the 0th stage of the flow, the integration instruction data setting section 73a assigns an integration tool number to the data determined to be possible to integrate by the three determination sections, and the data that cannot be integrated are collected at the OR gate 102. The NG signal is passed through the NG AND gate 103, and an appropriate distinguishing mark (for example, 0'') is passed through the NG AND gate 103.
) will be granted.

The integrated tool number shall be common to data for which the same tool is used, and if there is subsequent data sent sequentially that can be integrated with the previous data, the same integrated tool number as the previous data will be assigned. Ru. The set data is registered in the integrated instruction data memory 34 at stage 0 of the flow. FIG. 13 is a sample output diagram of the integrated instruction data memory 34.

In this way, for each tool machining content data, for example, machining depth, tool diameter, main cutting rotation, each main cutting edge, secondary cutting edge angle (tip angle), pitch, and finish level are set for each item. , consider whether or not it is possible to cut with the same tool and create integrated instruction data (by doing so, you can not only reduce the number of tools used, but also make it possible to cut with other tools if the tool cannot be used). Since commonality is also considered, it is possible to have flexibility that allows immediate adaptation, and improves work efficiency.

〔Effect of the invention〕

As explained above, according to the present invention, machining content data for each tool is input, it is examined whether cutting is possible with the same tool according to integrated reference data, and the results are outputted as integrated instruction data. , machining technology is also important for improving machining efficiency, and can provide a tool integrated processing device in automatic processing machines that is full of flexibility and practicality and can be used as part of a coherent machining information generation device. .
