Display unit

Abstract

The present disclosure is intended to provide a technique which enables a direct visual comparison between a computationally-machined surface profile determined based on motor position information and a machined surface profile obtained by actual measurement of a machined surface. A display unit includes: a motor position information acquirer that acquires motor position information including at least one of a command position or a real position of a motor; a machine information acquirer that acquires machine information including a drive shaft configuration, a tool geometry, and a shape of an unmachined workpiece; a machined surface profile simulator that performs a simulation of machining a workpiece based on a machining program, and determines a computationally-machined surface profile of the workpiece simulated to be machined, based on the motor position information and the machine information; a machined surface profile measurer that measures a machined surface profile of a machined workpiece that has actually been machined based on the machining program; and a machined surface profile display that displays the computationally-machined surface profile determined by the machined surface profile simulator, in parallel with the machined surface profile measured by the machined surface profile measurer.
