BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention is used to drill a workpiece, and relates to a method for automatically generating work data such as numerical control codes, work orders, setting layouts, and the like for drilling a workpiece.

An injection mold is used for injection molding, and is an apparatus for molding an injection product by injecting and solidifying molten resin into a molding space. In general, several processes for manufacturing injection molds include processes for performing machining such as cutting, hole machining, and the like. Here, the hole processing is to process the various holes required in the injection mold to the mold base material.

In the various holes required for the injection mold, a hole for a mill pin where an ejector pin is installed for ejection of an injection product, a hole for a cooling channel through which a coolant flows for cooling the injection, and a guide for determining a relative position of a moving template and a fixed template Guide pin holes are installed pins, bolt holes for fastening the members and the like.

The basic information about the mold base material may be information such as a mold number, an article number, an article name, a material, a quantity, a designer, and the like, and are input to a computer by an operator. Such basic information may be automatically filled in the work order when the work order is generated to provide convenience to the worker.

And, the reference plane direction information of the mold base material is provided to set the machining axis direction of ± X, ± Y, ± Z based on the reference plane direction, it can be used to generate a numerical control code and work orders accordingly.

In operation S130, when the computer receives a command for generating a numerical control code from an operator, the computer automatically generates the numerical control code by the numerical control code generation algorithm based on the information stored in the database, for example, the reference plane direction information of the mold base material in the drawing data. Can be generated.

If the computer receives a work instruction generation command from an operator, the computer can automatically generate the work instruction by the work instruction generation algorithm based on the basic data and the reference plane direction information of the mold base material reflected in the drawing data. The computer saves the generated numerical control code or work order in the form of a file so that the operator can check or print it through the viewer program as needed.

On the other hand, in step S120, the computer may output the information input window on the computer screen to receive the basic information about the mold base material from the operator. The information input window may be provided with an input field for the operator to enter the mold number, article number, article name, material, quantity, designer. The information input window may be output on the computer screen when the information input menu provided on the computer screen is selected by the operator.

In addition, the reference plane direction input window may be output to the computer screen so that the computer may receive the reference plane direction information of the mold base material from the operator. In the reference plane direction input window, selection buttons may be provided to allow an operator to select a desired area among regions in which the XY plane is divided into four sections. The reference plane direction input window may be provided with an input field for the operator to edit and input machining information such as product name, material, size, and the like, and a display column for displaying a list of holes to be worked on.

In addition, the reference plane direction input window may be provided with a check box for checking whether to generate a reference block in which hole display is omitted from the drawing data when the reference plane direction is selected. The reference plane direction input window may be output when the reference plane direction input menu provided on the computer screen is selected. The reference plane direction input menu may be configured in the form of a menu bar together with the information input menu.

The command input window may be provided so that the operator can execute the numerical control code generation command button and the work order generation command button. The command input window may be output on the computer screen after the reference plane direction information is input through the reference plane direction input window.

In the command input window, a list of ± X, ± Y and ± Z directions may be displayed and a check box may be provided for the operator to select one of the ± X, ± Y and ± Z directions. The computer may generate a numerical control code or work instruction in accordance with the selected direction when a direction is selected from a check box from an operator and a numerical control code generation command or a work instruction generation command is input. In addition, the command input window may be provided with an input box or an input button for displaying and editing information such as number, diameter, size, processing length, and feed of holes to be machined.

On the other hand, after the step S130, generating a setting layout for the workpiece can be further included (S140). In step S140, when the computer receives a setting layout generation command from the operator, the setting layout for the workpiece by the setting layout algorithm based on the information stored in the database, the basic information of the mold base material and the reference plane direction information reflected in the drawing data.

That is, in step S120, when a hole to be given by the operator is selected from the holes of the drawing displayed on the computer screen, and the property is given in a desired format among preset formats, the computer receives the given hole property information and stores it in the database. do.

The hole attribute information may include the type of the hole, the color of the surface of the hole, and the shape of the hole. Therefore, the preset format may be a preset format such that the hole color, hole shape, and the like may be different according to the types of holes classified into a mill pin hole, a cooling channel hole, a guide pin hole, a bolt hole, and the like. In this way, if a property is assigned in a predetermined format for each hole, particularly, different surface colors are provided, the type of the hole can be easily distinguished and work convenience can be achieved.

In operation S120, a hole property definition window may be output on the computer screen so that the computer may receive hall property information from the operator. In the hole property definition window, there is a display box that displays the type of hole, a display box that displays the hole color and the shape of the hole when the operator selects the type of hole from the display box, and a save button that can be saved after the hole property is assigned. This can be arranged. The hole property definition window may be displayed on the computer screen when the hole property definition menu provided on the computer screen is selected. The hole attribute definition menu may be configured in the form of a menu bar in combination with the above-described menus.

In operation S120, the process may further include outputting, on the computer screen, the hall attribute information provided by the operator to the operator. The hole attribute information may be provided not only by the operator through the above-described process but also when the drawing data is created.

In this case, check boxes for checking a search condition and a search command button may be provided in the hole property definition window to search for a hole that meets the search condition. The search condition may be the same hole size, the same hole color, the same direction, hole selection without attributes, and the like.
