Abstract
A machining information generating apparatus includes shape analyzing unit that obtains CAD data, searches a shape database of machining profile information for necessary information based on the CAD data, and performs a shape analysis, thereby creating an equation model for an uncut amount along an intended machining profile based on an uncut amount result from a simulation of a tool and data about the machining profile.
Claims18
A machining information generating apparatus for generating machining information for a determination of a necessary tool when a tool path for machining is created in a computer aided manufacturing (CAM) system from CAD data relating to workpiece generated in a computer aided manufacturing (CAD) system, comprising:
- a shape analyzing unit that obtains the CAD data, searches a shape database of machining profile information for necessary information based on the CAD data, and performs a shape analysis, thereby creating an equation model for an uncut amount along an intended machining profile based on an uncut amount result from a simulation of a tool and data about the machining profile.
A computer-readable recording medium stores therein a computer program that causes a machining information generating apparatus to implement generating machining information for a determination of a necessary tool when a tool path for machining is created in a computer aided manufacturing (CAM) system from CAD data relating to workpiece generated in a computer aided manufacturing (CAD) system, the computer program causing a machining information generating apparatus to execute:
- obtaining the CAD data;
- searching a shape database for necessary information based on the CAD data;
- and
- performing a shape analysis, thereby creating an equation model for an uncut amount along an intended machining profile based on an uncut amount result from a simulation of a tool and data about the machining profile.
