Estimating the term…
A computer-implemented method is described, comprising receiving data that represents a workpiece part type to be produced on a machine tool for machining flat starting materials. The method includes preparing a first numerical control program which is adapted for producing the workpiece part type from a flat starting material on the machine tool, and attaching one or more extractable data sets prepared from the received data to the first numerical control program, wherein the extractable data sets represent one or more parameters including the tools, tool steps and associated machining parameters for producing a single workpiece the workpiece part type on the machine tool. The method further includes extracting the extractable data sets from the attached first numerical control program for adjusting the one or more parameters, integrating the adjusted one or more parameters into a second numerical control program; and providing the second numerical control program to the machine tool.
A computer-implemented method, comprising:
An electronic system comprising:
One or more non-transitory machine-readable storage media storing instructions that are executed to perform operations comprising:
A process for the preparation of a new NC reproduction program for one or more workpiece parts that are to be reproduced on a machine tool in the form of a laser machine, punching machine, or combined laser/punching machine for machining flat starting materials wherein the workpiece parts to be reproduced are selected from a list of workpiece part types previously produced using an NC program, wherein extractable data sets associated with the selected, previously produced workpiece part types are read out from the NC program and wherein a new NC reproduction program for the workpiece parts that are to be reproduced is prepared on the basis of the extracted data sets.
A numerical control (NC) program for a machine tool in the form of a laser machine, punching machine, or combined laser/punching machine for machining flat starting materials, wherein the NC program has for each of multiple different workpiece parts that it can produce one or more extractable data sets storing tools, tool steps and associated machining parameters for producing an individual one of the workpiece parts.
