Abstract
A simulation apparatus of a numerical controller that controls a movable unit of a machine tool on the basis of a machining program sequentially generates, when the machining program includes a machining cycle command, a series of movement commands from designated work shape data and machining conditions, and stores the movement commands in a memory. The simulation apparatus displays the machining program and a moving image of the machining program in first and second areas of a display screen and displays the movement commands generated from the machining cycle command in a third area of the display screen.
Claims3
A simulation apparatus of a numerical controller that controls a movable unit of a machine tool on the basis of a machining program, the machining program including a machining cycle command for generating a series of movement commands from designated work shape data and machining conditions,
- the simulation apparatus comprising:
- an image displaying device;
- an execution unit configured to analyze the machining program and, when a command of the analyzed machining program is a machining cycle command, sequentially generate movement commands for the movable unit from the designated work shape data and machining conditions;
- a memory configured to store the series of movement commands generated by the execution unit;
- and
- a display unit configured to display a moving image of the machining program, the machining program, and the series of movement commands generated by the execution unit, in a first, second and third display area of the image displaying device, respectively, wherein
- the simulation apparatus displays the series of movement commands generated by the execution unit in the third display area of the image displaying device, displays a moving image of a machining operation based on the movement commands generated by the execution unit in the first display area, and stores the movement commands generated by the execution unit in the memory.
