A method for analyzing the condition of a machine, and an apparatus for analyzing the condition of a machine are described.

A method for analyzing the condition of a machine, and an apparatus for analyzing the condition of a machine are described.

In some implementations, a method includes receiving data characterizing an operating parameter of a machine, a time period of detection of the operating parameter, and one or more operating states associated with the machine. The method also includes rendering, in a graphical user interface (GUI) display space, a graph including a plot of the received data characterizing the operating parameter. A first axis of the graph is indicative of the time period and a second axis of the graph is indicative of the operating parameter. The method further includes receiving data characterizing user interaction with a first interactive graphical object located in the GUI display space. The first interactive graphical object indicative of a first operating state of the machine over a first sub-period of the time period. The method further includes replacing the first interactive graphical object with a first expanded interactive graphical object. The first expanded interactive graphical object overlays a first portion of the plot of the operating parameter detected during the first sub-period.

A computer-implemented method includes receiving toolpath data for machining a workpiece with a tool along a toolpath. The tool is comprised by a machine tool that is numerically controlled by a control device. Machine code for the machine tool corresponding to the toolpath data is received. A map linking at least one item of the toolpath data and at least one item of the machine code corresponding to the least one item of the toolpath data is created. At least one first item of the toolpath data and one or more second items of the machine code corresponding to the at least one first item are displayed to a user using the created map. A control device and a machine tool arranged and configured to execute the computer-implemented method are also provided.
