Open architecture based framework in intergrated precision machining system

摘要

This paper introduces a current effort in the application of an open architecture (OA) control system in precision machining at Berkeley's Laboratory for Manufacturing Automation (LMA). In the first part of this paper, issues in precision machining relative to the application of OA control systems and a higher level framework for conceptualizing the integration of a precision manufacturing process using an existing OA manfuacturing scheme is proposed. In the second part, the first level of implemenation of an open architecture controler system on a single point diamond turing machine is presented.
