Abstract

Un interpolateur (3) produit en sortie une impulsion d'interpolation pour chaque axe en réponse à une instruction de mouvement. La vitesse F d'une tête d'usinage (35) se déplaçant le long d'un chemin d'usinage est calculée à partir de l'impulsion (vitesse) d'interpolation pour chaque axe, et elle est transmise à un dispositif (4) de détermination des conditions de sortie. Sur la base de la vitesse F, le dispositif (4) de détermination des conditions de sortie calcule la puissance de sortie correspondante M(F), la fréquence d'impulsion N(F) et le rapport cyclique des impulsions Q(F) et les produits en sortie. De ce fait, le faisceau provenant d'un oscillateur laser (20) est commandé par les conditions en sortie de M(F), N(F) et Q(F).
