Abstract
An NC program creation device (132, 140) is configured to create an NC program to be executed by a machine tool (1) in which cutting chips are produced during cutting of a workpiece, and includes a reception unit (132) configured to receive a selection instruction in which a cutting chip length is selected, and a creation unit (143) configured to create an NC program including a G code or an M code for performing cutting so that cutting chips of the selected cutting chip length are produced, based on the selection instruction.
Claims12
An NC program creation device configured to create an NC program to be executed by a machine tool in which cutting chips are produced during cutting of a workpiece, comprising:
- a reception unit configured to receive a selection instruction in which a cutting chip length is selected;
- and
- a creation unit configured to create an NC program including a G code or an M code for performing cutting so that cutting chips of the selected cutting chip length are produced, based on the selection instruction.
An NC program creation device configured to create an NC program to be used in a machine tool, the machine tool including:
- a tool holding unit configured to hold a tool;
- a workpiece holding unit configured to hold a workpiece;
- a rotation drive unit configured to rotate the workpiece holding unit about an axis;
- a feed drive unit configured to move the workpiece holding unit and the tool holding unit relative to each other in a direction along the axis and in a direction orthogonal to the axis;
- and
- a numerical control unit configured to control the rotation drive unit and the feed drive unit according to an NC program,
- the device comprising:
- a display unit configured to display a screen;
- a display control unit configured to control display of the screen on the display unit;
- a data input unit configured to receive data entered via the screen displayed on the display unit;
- a program creation unit configured to create an NC program based on data entered through the data input unit,
- wherein the program creation unit is configured to create an NC program including an NC code for executing an oscillation cutting operation in which the tool is oscillated forward and backward at a predetermined frequency in a direction parallel to the axis, during cutting movement of the tool relative to the workpiece in the direction parallel to the axis,
- wherein the display control unit is configured to display, on the display unit, a selection screen through which one operation mode is selected from among a plurality of preset operation modes related to the oscillation cutting operation,
- wherein the data input unit is configured such that selection information related to the operation mode selected through the selection screen displayed on the display unit is entered, and
- wherein the program creation unit is configured to create an NC program including an NC code for executing the oscillation cutting operation corresponding to the selection information entered through the data input unit.
