Numerical controller with machining condition adjustment function which reduces chatter or tool wear/breakage occurrence
09964931 · 2018-05-08 · ·

A numerical controller includes a machine learning device for performing machine learning of machining condition adjustment of a machine tool. The machine learning device calculates a reward based on acquired machining-state data on a workpiece, and determines an adjustment amount of machining condition based on a result of machine learning and machining-state data, and adjusts machining conditions based on the adjustment amount. Further, the machine learning of machining condition adjustment is performed based on the determined adjustment amount of machining condition, the machining-state data, and the reward.

Feedback control numerical machine tool and method thereof

A feedback control numerical machine tool and a method thereof are provided. The machine tool includes at least two spindles, an acoustic frequency detecting module, at least two spindle position detecting modules, and a control module. The spindles machine a workpiece. The acoustic frequency detecting module detects an acoustic frequency of the spindles when machining the workpiece. The spindle position detecting modules detects position information of the spindles when machining the workpiece. The control module acquires the acoustic frequency and the position information of the spindles, monitors whether any of the spindles chatters according to the acoustic frequency of the spindles, and performs chattering avoidance to the spindle that chatters according to the position information of the spindles. As such, the present disclosure performs chattering monitoring to a plurality of spindles and avoids the chattering immediately.
