Skill training of manual machine operation by simulator -In the case of small-diameter deep-hole machining with drilling machine-

摘要

Recently, the role of skilled operators in manufacturing systems is recognized again and the utilization of the mentality and flexibility of human operators to them is focused on with fresh interest. In order to apply the manual operation to a manufacturing system effectively, it is important to investigate the skill learning characteristics of the operators and derive a reasonable skill training method for them. The virtual reality techniques appear to be very useful to carry out this investigation, though the actual manufacturing system is not necessarily suitable for it.
