Introduction of CNC 1949US Air Force asks MIT to develop a "numerically controlled" machine. 1952Prototype NC machine demonstrated (punched tape input)1980-CNC machines (computer used to link directly to controller) 1990-DNC: external computer drip feeds control programmer to machine tool controller
The definition of CNC given by Electronic Industry Association (EIA) is as follows:A system in which actions are controlled by the direct insertion of numerical data at some point. The system must automatically interpret at least some portion of this data.In a simple word, a CNC system receives numerical data, interpret the data and then control the action accordinglyCNC SYSTEM
Motivation and uses To manufacture complex curved geometries in 2D or 3D was extremely expensive by mechanical means (which usually would require complex jigs to control the cutter motions)
Machining components with repeatable accuracy
Unmanned machining operations
Advantages of CNC - Easier to program;- Easy storage of existing programs;- Easy to change a program- Avoids human errors- NC machines are safer to operate- Complex geometry is produced as cheaply as simple ones- Usually generates closer tolerances than manual machines
DC Servo Motor
This is the most common type of feed motors used in CNC machines. The principle of operation is based on the rotation of an armature winding in a permanently energized
AC Servo Motor
In an AC servomotor, the rotor is a permanent magnet while the stator is equipped with 3-phase windings. The speed of the rotor is equal to the rotational frequency of the magnetic field of the stator, which is regulated by the frequency converter.
Stepping Motor A stepping motor is a device that converts the electrical pulses into discrete mechanical rotational motions of the motor shaft. This is the simplest device that can be applied to CNC machines since it can convert digital data into actual mechanical displacement
NC machinesMotion control is done by: servo-controlled motors
CNC terminology BLU: basic length unit smallest programmable move of each axis.Controller: (Machine Control Unit, MCU) Electronic and computerized interface between operator and m/cController components:1. Data Processing Unit (DPU)2. Control-Loops Unit (CLU)
Controller components Data Processing Unit:Input device [RS-232 port/ Tape Reader/ Punched Tape Reader]Data Reading Circuits and Parity Checking CircuitsDecoders to distribute data to the axes controllers.Control Loops Unit:Interpolator to supply machine-motion commands between data pointsPosition control loop hardware for each axis of motion
Types of CNC machines Based on Motion Type:Point-to-PointorContinuous path
Based on Control Loops:Open looporClosed loop
Based on Power Supply:ElectricorHydraulicorPneumatic
Based on Positioning SystemIncrementalorAbsolute
Open Loop vs. Closed Loop controls
Open loop control of a Point-to-Point NC drilling machine NOTE: this machine uses stepper motor control
Components of Servo-motor controlled CNC Motor speed controlTwo types of encoder configurationsMotorlead screw rotationtable movesposition sensed by encoderfeedback
Motion Control and feedback Encoder outputs: electrical pulses (e.g. 500 pulses per revolution) Rotation of the motor linear motion of the table: by the leadscrew The pitch of the leadscrew: horizontal distance between successive threads One thread in a screw single start screw: Dist moved in 1 rev = pitch Two threads in screw double start screw: Dist moved in 1 rev = 2* pitch
Automatic Part ProgrammingSoftware programs can automatic generation of CNC dataMake 3D modelDefine ToolCNC dataSimulatecutting
Automatic part programming and DNCVery complex part shapes very large NC programNC controller memory may not handle HUGE part programcomputer feeds few blocks ofNC program to controllerWhen almost all blocks executed,controller requests more blocks
