The amount of data that can be gathered from a machining process is often misunderstood, and even if these are collected, they frequently underutilized. Intelligent uses collected manufacturing operation lead to increased productivity lower costs. While some large-scale manufacturers have developed custom solutions for collection their machine tools, small- medium-size enterprises need efficient easily deployable methods analysis. This paper presents three broad all which rely on the...

Engineering students are often unaware of manufacturing challenges that introduced during the design process. Students will sometimes parts either very difficult or impossible to manufacture, because they intricacies and limitations various processes. Design for manufacturability (DFM) education must be improved address these issues, this work is a vision implementation rapid method facilitating DFM in terms subtractive additive The goal teach about how their designs impact ease cost...

High-speed machine tools typically provide high spindle speeds and feedrates to achieve an effective material removal rate (MRR). However, it is not possible realize the full extent of their high-speed capabilities due sharp corners toolpaths which are introduced by conventional machining strategies, such as contour- direction-parallel toolpaths. To address this limitation, spiral that can reduce magnitude sudden direction changes have been developed in previous researches. Nevertheless, for...

Direct digital manufacturing (DDM) is the creation of a physical part directly from computer-aided design (CAD) model with minimal process planning and typically applied to additive (AM) processes fabricate complex geometry. AM preferred for DDM because its user input requirements; as result, users can focus on exploiting other advantages AM, such intricate mechanisms that require no assembly after fabrication. Such free be created using during single build process. In contrast, subtractive...

Current industrial practice in automated manufacturing operations relies on low fidelity data transmission methods between computer numerical control (CNC) machine tools and the computer-aided (CAM) systems used to program them. The typical language CNC machines, known as G-Code, has been existence for nearly sixty years offers limited resolution command data. In addition, proprietary nature of hampers ability manufacturers expand improve upon capability existing tools. G-Code was not...

Computer-aided manufacturing (CAM) is essential to the everyday operations of many facilities. CAM software used aid in a part by converting computer model into instructions for machine tool. Most frequently, generate G-Code, which standard programming language CNC turning and milling machines. While greatly simplifies process it still requires experience learn use properly. Additionally, powerful workstation required run software, can be inconvenient due its cost size. Many organizations...

The use of computer-aided manufacturing (CAM) software is essential in the rapid production high-quality computer numerical control (CNC) machining toolpaths for complex parts. Typical CAM relies on analytical representations part geometry, where curves and surfaces are described by parametric functions. This paper proposes a novel way to represent geometry known as voxel model. A model uses three-dimensional array small cubes volume; these cubes, or voxels, analog two-dimensional pixels an...

It is the desire, in using transcriptions, that reproduced quality be a facsimile of original program. The recording unit, disk, and reproducing unit play important parts achieving desired results. A discussion operating characteristics these items presented.

Abstract Monitoring of the health water-based coolant used for machining requires measurement various parameters coolant, including refractive index, temperature, pH, and turbidity. One primary that is to determine concentration which typically measured manually by an operator at regular intervals during machine operation. This paper describes conceptualization preliminary design a monitoring system will automatically measure index digitize resulting communication factory supervisory control...
