AUTOMATIC ON-CNC TOOL FOR MOTION ANALYSIS AND OPTIMIZATION

摘要

The invention features, in one aspect, a computerized method for measuring or improving performance of a cutting head of an automated cutting system by evaluating motor control processing of an automated motion control of the cutting head of the automated cutting system. The method includes generating one or more motor outputs for the automated cutting system for any of a cut, a trace, or a motion, the one or more motor outputs corresponding to at least a portion of a set of motor output commands. A characteristic is measured of the one or more motor outputs for the plurality of axes of the automated cutting system. The characteristic is compared with the at least a portion of the set of motor output commands to determine a performance measurement of the automated cutting system.
