本実施形態の加工工程は、刃先座標を用いて加工面を形成する工程である。本実施形態の加工工程は、第1の旋削工程と第2の旋削工程とを有する。
第2の旋削工程では、第1の旋削工程に引き続き、被削材Wを主軸O周りに回転させながら行う。第2の旋削工程では、まず、切刃22の軸方向最先端を、段差面43の軸方向の目標寸法(目標位置)に位置合わせする。次いで、切削インサート20の切刃22を大径部41と段差面43との角部に接触した状態から、段差面43に接触した状態を維持しつつ径方向内側に移動させる。これにより、段差面43を切刃22により旋削加工することができる。
図7Cおよび図7Dは、本実施形態の測定工程を示す模式図である。
測定工程は、センサ座標を用いて加工面の寸法の測定を行う工程である。測定工程は、第1の測定工程と第2の測定工程とを有する。
なお、追加工工程は、図7A、図7Bに示す加工工程と同様の手順を経て行われるため、図示を省略する。
図8は、本実施形態の旋削工具(切削工具)101の斜視図である。図9は、旋削工具101と被削材の一部の正面図である。
なお、上述の実施形態と同一態様の構成要素については、同一符号を付し、その説明を省略する。
