Abstract
The present disclosure relates to a system and a method for managing machine tool information for heterogeneous numerical control devices, and more particularly, to a system and a method for managing machine tool information for heterogeneous numerical control devices which may manage data of heterogeneous numerical control devices by a mobile device through a network, such as a wide area Internet or local WiFi, and monitor an operational state of the machine tool.
Claims5
An apparatus for managing machine tool information for heterogeneous numerical control devices, comprising:
- a user interface unit configured to display a screen image for manipulation setting and operational states of heterogeneous numerical control devices and receive a manipulation command;
- a numerical control device information unit configured to store information stored in the heterogeneous numerical control device and interpretation information necessary to interpret the information stored in the numerical control device for each numerical control device;
- a mobile device information unit configured to store information about a mobile device, to which the information stored in the numerical control device needs to be transmitted;
- and
- a server module configured to interpret information stored in the heterogeneous numerical control devices based on the stored interpretation information, convert a result of the interpretation into information appropriate for the mobile device, and transmit the converted information to the mobile device.
A method of managing machine tool information for heterogeneous numerical control devices, comprising:
- storing information in heterogeneous numerical control devices stored in the common memory unit in which a numerical control device communicates with a server module;
- reading, by the server module, the information in the heterogeneous numerical control devices stored in the common memory unit;
- interpreting, by the server module, the read information stored in the heterogeneous numerical control devices based on interpretation information;
- converting, by the server module, a result of the interpretation into information appropriate for the mobile device and transmitting the converted information to the mobile device;
- and
- displaying, by the mobile device, the received information.
