Abstract

PURPOSE:To avoid the input mistakes of register numbers by reading the tool numbers shown in bar codes and registering these tool numbers directly to an ATC tool register file. CONSTITUTION:A numerical controller analyzes a working program 1 through an NC (numerical control) data processing part 2 and drives with control a machine driving part 4 via a machine control part 3 based on the shaft shift data. In addition, a tool register file 5 which contains a tool selection control part 7 and registers and stores the tool numbers of an automatic tool exchange device ATC is provided to the controller together with an operating key switch 6 which sets the file 5, a bar code reader 8 which shows the tool numbers in bar codes and reads these bar codes stuck to the tools and a file control part 10. Then the read bar codes are transferred via an interface 9 and collated with the tool numbers. The normal data is obtained is converted into a prescribed data format and then registered automatically as tool numbers to the addresses of the file 5 corresponding to magazine pots which are supplied separately.

の欠点を有してい友。Since the conventional NC device was configured as described above,
To register a tool number in the TC tool registration file (5), select the tool registration screen on the CRT screen attached to the NC device, and enter the tool number installed in the magazine pot of the ATC of the machine using the operation key switch (6). It was necessary to enter and register. In other words, the operator has to check the installed tool number and enter the next registration number each time, which is time-consuming and leads to many input errors.
