DIALOG ORIENTED PROGRAMMING SYSTEM FOR A CNC MACHINE TOOL

摘要

A dialogue-oriented programming system for producing control programs for a CNC machine tool, having a data entry and visualisation device (1, 2) for entering and/or altering data which determine the desired function and control sequence of the CNC machine tool; a central memory and processing unit (3), in which the entered data are processed into control data for a machine control system of the CNC machine tool and are output as control program for the CNC machine tool, to its machine control system, via an input/output unit. The programming system is further developed in that a function describing unit (FB) for describing the processing and dialogue sequence is present in the central memory and processing unit (3), a function control matrix together with a sequence description being entered into the function describing unit (FB), and the function control matrix containing the allocation and the assignment of program parameters to the desired functions of the CNC machine tool; a function control unit, in the central memory and processing unit (3), for processing the data prepared in the function describing unit (FB) is connected to current data and/or further application units (APPL, WTM, RTM, TTM, GEO) and these are processed; and, in the central memory and processing unit (3), the function describing unit (FB) creates a dialogue-oriented control program for the CNC machine tool from the prepared data connected to the current data and further application units (APPL, WTM, RTM, TTM, GEO, NNN).
