Motor control device
A motor control device is a motor control device which controls a spindle motor of a machine tool, the device including: a low-pass filter which averages torque command values or drive current values of the spindle motor and calculates averaged load information of the spindle motor; and a time constant calculation unit which calculates, as a time constant of the low-pass filter, a first time constant based on a cut-off frequency according to the rotation number of the spindle driven by the spindle motor, or a second time constant based on a cut-off frequency according to a value produced by multiplying a of cutting tooth number of a tool by the rotation number of the spindle.
MODELING DEVICES USED IN GUIDED BONE AND TISSUE REGENERATION
This disclosure describes manufacturing of a device configured to guide bone and tissue regeneration for a bone defect. A method may include receiving a three-dimensional digital model or scan representing an anatomical feature to be repaired, generating a simulated membrane using the three-dimensional model, the simulated membrane being configured to cover the anatomical feature to be repaired, generating a digital two-dimensional flattened version of the simulated membrane, and generating code or instructions configured to cause a three-dimensional printer or milling device to produce a trimming guide that includes an opening corresponding to the flattened version of the simulated membrane and that further includes a cut-out configured to hold a premanufactured membrane. The trimming guide may be operative as a guide for marking or cutting the premanufactured membrane through the opening while the premanufactured membrane is held in the cut-out.
Cutting Machine Comprising a Force Transducer, Process of Operating Such Cutting Machine and Process of Calibrating the Force Transducer of Such a Cutting Machine
A cutting machine includes a tool holder for holding the tools required for chip-removing machining of a workpiece, and a tool arm connecting the tool holder to a drive unit, which moves the tool arm to align one of the required tools with a workpiece in each manufacturing step. The tool arm includes an upper arm connected with the drive unit and mechanically connected to a lower arm. The lower arm is connected with the tool holder. At least one force transducer is positioned between the upper arm and the lower arm so that during chip-removing machining of a workpiece, the force transducer is capable of measuring a tool force exerted by any of the required tools in a main flow of forces.
Machine tool including vibration restriction means
A machine tool includes: a cutting tool; rotating means; feeding means; and vibration means for reciprocatingly vibrating the cutting tool and the workpiece relative to each other; wherein the cutting process is carried out by a relative rotation of the workpiece and the cutting tool, and feeding of the cutting tool, to thereby move the cutting tool continuously along a plurality of predetermined movement paths each having a different machining feeding direction. The machine tool further includes vibration restriction means that operates as the movement of the cutting tool changes from one movement path of two consecutive movement paths to the other movement path, for restricting the reciprocating vibration for a predetermined period from the movement starting position of the movement paths, and starting the reciprocating vibration after the lapse of said predetermined period.
