NC 的基本组成部分一个数控系统包括以三个组成部分：指令编程、机械控制单元、加工设备。三者之间的关系是：程序导入控制单元，控制单元

2、直接指导加工设备的动作。 指令程序是细化的一步步的命令，它控制加工设备。在它的一般形式中，命令涉及到 机床主轴和放置工件的工作台的相对位置。许多先进的指令包含有选择主轴速度，切削工 具等功能。程序编在一个适当的媒介中，再导入到控制单元中。在几十年前最常用的媒介 是一英尺宽的穿孔纸带。由于穿孔纸带的广泛应用，NC也叫做“纸带控制”。现在磁带和软盘得到了广泛的应用。加工设备的NC系统的第三个基本组成部分。它是有效工作的执行部分。在许多数控的 例子中，加工设备包括工作台、主轴和驱动和控制它们的设备。2. 控制系统的种类在NC中有两种基本控制类型：点到点和仿型定位。在点到点系统中（也叫做点定位）， 机

3、床的每一个轴都单独驱动。为了减少不加工时间，机床一最大的速度运动。但刀具达到 定位点时开始减速。 因此在一个加工过程中， 比如钻削或冲压， 加工过程和回程独立完成。 在孔被钻出或冲出后，刀具撤回，移动到另一个地方，继续下一次加工。从一点到另一点 的路径在一个放面十分重要：为提高效率，所需时间必须最小。点定位主要用于钻削、虫 牙和立式洗削加工。在仿型定位系统中 （也被称为沿路径加工系统） ，定位和加工都沿着指定的路径， 但速 度不一样。因此刀具沿着指定的路径运动，速度和运动的同步精确控制十分重要。仿型定 位系统用于车床、磨床、焊接机械和加工中心中。在几种基本方法之一的控制之下，刀具沿着路径发生微

4、量的移动。在NC程序中，不同 的刀具有不同的刀具补偿。为使仿型数控加工中有光滑的路径，开发了许多补偿方式用以处理这些问题。他们包 括：直线插补，圆弧插补，螺旋插补，抛物线插补，三次曲线插补。直线插补是最基本的。当仿型加工路线是直线时用到它。两轴和三轴直线插补在实际 运用中有一定的区别，但概念上是一致的。程序需要指定直线的起点和终点，并指定沿直 线的进给速度。为了得到指定的沿直线的进给速度，插补要计算出两轴（三轴）的每一轴 的进给速度。如果要创建一个圆弧路径，直线插补是不合适的。因为程序需要指定圆弧和它们各自 的终点。圆弧插补已经发展了。它允许路径的程序包含圆弧，这个圆弧由以下参数定义： 终点坐

5、标、圆弧中心坐标、半径和沿圆弧加工的方向。创造出的刀具路径包含一系列的直 线线段，但这些线段由插补模型计算，而不是程序本身。刀具沿着每一条线段一条接一条 的移动，加工出光滑的圆弧路径。圆弧插补的限制是圆弧存在的平面必须在一个由CN係统的二轴定义的平面内。螺旋插补使两轴描述的圆弧插补和第三轴的直线运动结合了起来。它允许在在三维空 间里定义一个三维的路径。抛物线和三次曲线插补利用一个高阶方程提供一个复杂的自由曲线。它们通常需要很 大的计算量，因此不如直线和圆弧插补常用。它们用于自动化工业的模具制造中。这些设 计中不能精确和方便的由直线和圆弧插补近似。3. 加工工具的选择和加工工艺规程的制定加工工具

6、的选择和加工工艺规程的制定是数控加工的一个重要的内容，它不仅影响到 数控加工的效率，还直接影响到加工质量。CAD/CA技术的发展，使数控加工能直接运用CAD设计数据，特别是微机和数控模块，使设计工艺过程和编程的全过程都由计算机完成， 而不需要输出特定的技术文件。如今，许多CAD/CA软件包都提供自动编程功能，这些软件即时更新编程中遇到的问 题，加工刀具的选择，加工方式的计划和加工规范的制定等等。编程人员只需建立先关的 参数，就可以自动完成数控生产，还可以与数控模块通信。因此，在数控加工中，刀具的 选择和加工规范的制定完全取决于机床的条件。与此同时也需要编程人员掌握刀具的选择 和工艺规范的制定原

7、则，因为编程须完全考虑数控加工的特征。数控加工经常使用的刀具种类和特征 数控加工刀具必须适应高速性，高效性和自动高级特征，应该包括一般刀具和特殊用 途的刀具。 数控刀具的划分有多种方法。 许多刀具通过其结构划分成：（1）整体式刀具 （2） 装配式刀具。 运用焊接或者机械加紧方式。 机械加紧式又可以分为可转位和不可转位两种。 按刀具的材料可分为高速钢（ 1）高速钢刀具（ 2）硬质合金刀具（ 3）金刚石刀具（ 4）其 他材料刀具。如立方碳化硼刀具，陶瓷刀具等等。还有按切削工艺可分为（1）成型刀具（ 2）钻孔刀具。包括麻花钻、扩孔钻，忽刀等等（ 3）镗刀（ 4）铣刀等等。为了适应数 控机床对刀具稳定

8、性、 易更换性等的要求， 近几年装配式的可转位刀具得到了普遍的应用。 占到整个数控机床刀具的 30%-40%，金属的数量达到 80%-90%。4. 数控程序一个数控程序包含一系列的能使数控机床正确加工的指令。NC程序由内置程序完成,在商品架上或者从外部资源购买。程序也可以手工或者计算机辅助编程。程序包括指令和命令， G 指令定义刀具和工件间的相互运动。 P 指令定义主轴转速、 进 给速度、刀具等。T指令定义插补号和工作台或刀具的快、慢移动。S指令定义主轴转动、换刀和工件的进给等等。（ 1）手工编程 手工编程首先计算刀具、 工件和工作台的相互位置关系。 它基于工程 图和制造工艺和它们的顺序。 然

9、后准备好一个表， 其中包括加工特定工序所需的必要信息。 例如：切削刀具、主轴转速、进给速度、切削深度、切削液、切削力、刀具或者工件的相 对位置和运动。有了这些信息，程序部分就准备好了。通常输出程序的纸带要先准备好。手工编程可以由懂得特定加工过程的专业人士来做，他可以理解、阅读和改变程序。 因为他们熟悉机床刀具，一些有能力的，有技术的工程师通过一些编程训练就可以手工编 程。然而，这项工作十分乏味、耗时。手工编程大多数情况下用于简单的点定位中。（ 2）计算机辅助编程 计算机辅助编程有特殊的程序语言。 它决定了工件的拐角、 边 缘、和表面上的相关点。程序语言是和计算机交流的一种方式。编程人员用这种语

10、言描述 加工零件，而由计算机将零件程序转化为数控机床的执行指令。一些有多种特征和应用的 语言都可以使用。第一种被运用的类似英语的语言叫做 ATP（自动编程工具），它在十九世 纪五十年代末开发出来了。这种语言仍然在点定位和仿型定位中得到了广泛的应用。计算机辅助编程与手工编程相比有如下优势： ，符号语言的简单应用， 减少了编程时间。 程序可以存储大量的与加工过程有关的数据，例如：力、速度、进给量、刀具形状、刀具 形状补偿、偏差等。减少了手工编程中的人为错误的可能性。简单的机械顺序或机床到机 床变化的能力。降低成本（编程只需很少时间） 。编程语言的应用不仅导致了高的质量，而且使机器指令有了飞速的发展

11、。而且，模型 可以移动到电脑终端，确保了程序功能是想要的。这种方法防止采用不必要的昂贵的机床 来加工。选择一个特定的NC程序语言主要取决于以下因素：制造设备个体专长水平，部件的复 杂程度，可用的设备和电脑型号，编程中的时间和成本。因为数控中数据的输入与工件材料和加工过程有关，程序必须由有机器加工相关方面 知识的加工人员或者编程人员完成。在生产开始前，程序必须被验证，或者通过CRT屏幕观看加工过程的模型，或者用不贵重的材料模拟加工，例如：铝、木材或者塑料。5. 加工中心当前，许多技术更为先进的车床叫做加工中心。因为，它们除了完成常规的车削工作 之外，还可以完成某些铣削、钻削工作。加工中心基本上可

12、以认为是转塔车床和铣床的组 合体。有时，制造厂商为了增加机床的多用性，还会增加一些其他的性能。6. 数 字 控 制先进制造技术中的一个最基本的概念是数字控制（NC。在数控技术出现之前，所有的机床都是由人工操纵和控制的。在与人工控制的机床有关的很多局限性中，操作者的技 能大概是最突出的问题。采用人工控制时，产品的质量直接与操作者的技能有关。数字控 制代表了从人工控制机床走出来的第一步。数字控制意味着采用预先录制的，存储的符号指令，控制机床和其他制造系统。一个 数控技师的工作不是去操纵机床，而是编写能够发出机床操纵指令的程序。对于一台数控 机床，其上必须装有一个被称为阅读机的界面装置，用来接受和解

13、译编程指令。发展数控技术是为了克服人类操作者的局限性，而且它确实完成了这项工作。数字控 制的机器比人工控制的机器的精度更高、生产的零件的一致性更好、生产的速度更快、而 且长期的工艺装备成本更低。数控技术的发展导致制造工艺中的其他几项新发明的产生： 电火花加工技术，激光切削，电子束焊接。数字控制还使得机床比它们采用人工操纵的前辈们的用途更为广泛。一台数控机床可 以自动生产很多种类的零件，每个零件都可以有不同的和复杂的加工过程。数控可使生产 厂家承担那些对于采用人工控制的机床和工艺来说，在经济上是不划算的产品的生产任 务。与许多先进技术一样，数控诞生于麻省理工学院的实验室中。数控这个概念是20 世

14、纪 50 年代初在美国空军的资助下提出来的。在其最初的阶段，数控机床可以经济和有效 地进行直线切割。然而，曲线轨迹成为机床加工的一个问题，在编程时应该采用一系列的水平与竖直的 台阶来生成曲线。构成台阶的每个线段越短，曲线就越光滑。台阶中的每个线段都必须经 过计算。在这个问题促使下，与1959年诞生了自动编程工具（APT语言。这是一个专门适用 于数控的编程语言，使用类似于英语的语句来定义零件的几何形状，描述切削刀具的形状 和规定必要的运动。APT语言的研究和发展是在数控技术进一步发展过程中的一大进步。 最初的数控系统与今天应用的数控系统是有很大的差别的。在那时的机床中，只有硬线逻 辑电路。指令程

15、序写在穿孔纸带上（它后来被塑料磁带所取代） ，采用带阅读机将写在纸 带或磁带上的指令给机器翻译出来。所有这些共同构成了机床数字控制方面的巨大的进 步。然而，在数控发展的这个阶段中还存在着许多问题。一个主要问题是穿孔纸带的易损坏性。在机械加工过程中，载有编程指令信息的纸带 断裂和被撕坏是常见的事情。在机床上每加工一个零件，都需要将载有编程指令的纸带放 入阅读机中重新运行一次。因此，这个问题变的很严重。如果需要制造1 00个某种零件，则应该将纸带分别通过阅读机 100次。易损坏的纸带显然不能承受严酷的车间环境和这种 重复使用。这就导致了一种专门的塑料磁带的研制。在纸带上通过采用一系列的小孔来载有编

16、程 指令，而在塑料带上通过采用一系列的磁点来载有编程指令。塑料带的强度比纸带度要高 很多，这就可以解决常见的撕坏和断裂问题。然而，它仍然存在着两个问题。其中最重要的一个问题是，对输入带中的指令进行修改是非常困难的，或者是根本不 可能的。即使对指令程序进行最微小的调整。也必须中断加工，制作一条新带。而且带通 过阅读机的次数还必须与需要加工的零件的个数相同。幸运的是，计算机技术的实际应用 很快解决了数控技术中与穿孔纸带和塑料带有关的问题。在形成直接数字控制（DNC这个概念后，可以不再采用纸带或塑料带作为编程指令的载体，这样就解决了与之有关的问题。在直接数字控制中，几台机床通过数据传输线路 连接到一

17、台主计算机上。 操纵这些机床所需要的程序都存储在这台主计算机中。 当需要时， 通过数据传输线路提供给每台机床。直接数字控制是在穿孔纸带和塑料带基础上的一大进 步。然而，它也有着与其他依赖于主计算机的技术一样的局限性。 当主计算机出现故障时， 由其控制的所有机床都将停止工作。这个问题促使了计算机数字控制技术的产生。微处理器的发展为可编程逻辑控制器和微型计算机的发展做好了准备。这两种技术为 计算机数控（CNC的发展打下了基础。采用 CNC技术后，每台机床上都有一个可编程逻 辑控制器或者微机对其进行数字控制。这可以使得程序被输入和存储在每台机器内部。它 还可以在机床以外编制程序，并且将其下载到每台机

18、床中。计算机数控解决了主计算机发 生故障所带来的问题，但是它产生了另一个被称为数据管理的问题。同一个程序可能要分 别装入十个相互之间没有通信联系的微机中。这个问题正在解决之中，它是通过采用局部 区域网络将各个微机连接起来，以利于更好地进行数据管理。外文原文CNC TECHNOLOGYNumerical control (NC) is a form of programmable automation in which the processing equipment is controlled by means of numbers, letters, and other symbols. T

19、he numbers, letters, and symbols are coded in an appropriate format to define a program of instructions for a particular workpart or job. When the job changes, the program of instructions is changed. The capability to change the program is what makes NC suitable for low-and medium-volume production.

20、 It is much easier to write new programs than to make major alterations of the processing equipment.1. BASIC COMPONENTS OF NCA numerical control system consists of the following three basic components: Program ofinstructions, Machine control unit, Processing equipmentThe general relationship among t

21、he three components is: the program is fed into the control unit, which directs the processing equipment accordingly.punched tape. “tapecontrol ” into use moreThe program of instructions is the detailed step-by-step commands that direct the processing equipment. In its most common form, the commands

22、 refer to positions of a machine tool spindle with respect to the worktable on which the part is fixtured. More advanced instructions include selection of spindle speeds, cutting tool, and other function. The most common medium in use over the last several decades has been 1-in. -wideBecause of the

23、widespread use of the punched tape, NC is sometimes called However, this is a misnomer in modern usage of numerical control. Coming recently have been magnetic tape cassettes and floppy diskettes.The machine control unit (MCU) consists of the electronics and control hardware that read and interpret

24、the program of instruction and convert it into mechanical actions of the machine tool or other processing equipment.The processing equipment is the third basic component of an NC system. It is the component that performs useful work. In the most common example of numerical control, one that performs

25、 machining operations, the processing equipment consists of the worktable and spindle as well as the motors and controls needed to drive them.2. Types Of Control SystemsThere are two basic types of control systems in numerical control: point-to-point and contouring. In the point-to-point system, als

26、o called positioning, each axis of the machine is driven separately by leadscrews and, depending on the type of operation, at different velocities. The machine moves initially at maximum velocity in order to reduce nonproductive time but decelerates as the tool reaches its numerically defined positi

27、on. Thus in an potation such as drilling or punching, the positioning and cutting take place sequentially. After the hole is drilled or punched, the tool retracts, moves rapidly to another position, and repeats the operation. The path followed from one position to another is important in only one re

28、spect: The time required should be minimized for efficiency. Point-to-point systems are used mainly in drilling, punching, and straight milling operations.In the contouring system, also known as the continuous path system, positioning and cutting operations are both along controlled paths but at dif

29、ferent velocities. Because the tool cuts as it travels along a prescribed path, accurate control and synchronization of velocities and movements are important. The contouring system is used on lathes, milling machines, grinders, welding machinery, and machining centers.Movement along the path, or in

30、terpolation, occurs incrementally, by one of several basic methods. In all interpolations, the path controlled is that of the center of rotation of the tool. Compensation for different tools, different diameter tools, or tool wear during machining, can be made in the NC program.There are a number of

31、 interpolation schemesthat have been developed to deal with the various problems that are encountered in generating a smooth continuous path with a con touri ng-t ype NC system. They in clude:L in ear interpo lati on, Circular interpo lati on , Helical interpolation, Parabolic interpolation, Cubic i

32、nterpolation。Each of these interpolation procedures permits the programmer (or operator) to generate machine instructions for linear or curvilinear paths, using a relatively few input parameters. The interpolation module in the MCU performs the calculations and directs the tool along the path.Linear

33、 interpolation is the most basic and is used when a straight-line path is to be generated in continuous-path NC. Two-axis and three-axis linear interpolation routines are sometimes distinguished in practice, but conceptually they are the same. The program is required to specify the beginning point a

34、nd end point of the straight line, and the feed rate that is to be followed along the straight line. The interpolator computes the feed rates for each of the two (or three) axes in order to achieve the specified feed rate.Linear interpolation for creating a circular path would be quite inappropriate

35、 because the programmer would be required to specify the line segments and their respective end points that are to be used to approximate the circle. Circular interpolation schemes have been developed that permit the programming of a path consisting of a circular arc by specifying the following para

36、meters of the arc: the coordinates of its end points, the coordinates of its center, its radius, and the direction of the cutter along the arc. The tool path that is created consists of a series of straight-line segments, but the segments are calculated by the interpolation module rather than the pr

37、ogrammer. The cutter is directed to move along each line segment one by one in order to generate the smooth circular path. A limitation of circular interpolation is that the plane in which the circular arc exists must be a plane defined by two axes of the NC system.Helical interpolation combines the

38、 circular interpolation scheme for two axes described above with linear movement of a third axis. This permits the definition of a helical path in three-dimensional space.Parabolic and cubic interpolation routines are used to provide approximations of free-form curves using higher-order equations. T

39、hey generally require considerable computational power and are not as common as linear and circular interpolation. Their applications are concentrated in the automobile industry for fabricating dies for car body panels styled with free-form designs that cannot accurately and conveniently be approxim

40、ated by combining linear and circular interpolations.3. Programming For NCA program for numerical control consists of a sequenceof directions that causesan NC machine to carry out a certain operation, machining being the most commonly used process. Programming for NC may be done by an internal progr

41、amming department, on the shop floor, or purchased from an outside source. Also, programming may be done manually or with computer assistance.The program contains instructions and commands. Geometric instructions pertain to relative movements between the tool and the work piece. Processing instructi

42、ons pertain to spindle speeds, feeds, tools, and so on. Travel instructions pertain to the type of interpolation and slow or rapid movements of the tool or worktable. Switching commands pertain to on/off position for coolant supplies, spindle rotation, direction of spindle rotation, tool changes, wo

43、rk piece feeding, clamping, and so on.(1) Manual ProgrammingManual part programming consists of first calculating dimensional relationships of the tool, work piece, and work table, based on the engineering drawings of the part, and manufacturingoperations to be performed and their sequence. A progra

44、m sheet is then prepared, which consists of the necessaryinformation to carry out the operation, such as cutting tools, spindle speeds, feeds, depth of cut, cutting fluids, power, and tool or work piece ally a paper tape is first prepared for trying out and debugging the program. Depending on how of

45、ten it is to be used, the tape may be made of more durable Mylar.Manual programming can be done by someone knowledgeable about the particular process and able to understand, read, and change part programs. Because they are familiar with machine tools and process capabilities, skilled machinists can

46、do manual programming with some training in programming. However, the work is tedious, time consuming, and uneconomical-and is used mostly in simple point-to-point applications.(2) Computer-Aided ProgrammingComputer-aided part programming involves special symbolic programming languages that determin

47、e the coordinate points of corners, edges, and surfaces of the part. Programming language is the means of communicating with the computer and involves the use of symbolic characters. The programmer describes the component to be processed in this language, and the computer converts it to commands for

48、 the NC machine. Several languages having various features and applications are commercially available. The first language that used English-like statements was developed in the late 1950s and is called APT (for Automatically Programmed Tools). This language, in its various expanded forms, is still

49、the most widely used for both point-to-point and continuous-path programming.Computer-aided part programming has the following significant advantagesover manual methods:Use of relatively easy to use symbolic Ian guageReduced p rogram ming time.

Before production begins, programs should be verified, either by viewing a simulation of the process on a CRT screen or by making the part from an inexpensive material, such as aluminum, wood, or plastic, rather than the material specified for the finished part.4. Cu

54、tting tool choice and cutting specifications determination inCNC processingThe cutting tool choice and the cutting specifications determination is in the numerical control processing craft important content, it not only influence numerical control engine bed processing efficiency, moreover affects t
