The rectangle that new CAM software optimized pattern plate to make working procedure grow in 3 feet for Michael Angelo company board on treatment aperture appears not to have very big correlation with small-sized CNC lathe. But the Michael Angelo mould that how saving Wenzeli generally designs a plant, this kind of correlation is apparent. This factory changed the method that machines pattern plate recently. New method not only faster, and the error is smaller. As the result that improves accuracy, the factory needs two old drilling machine no longer, original among them an error that can use repair pattern plate for a long time, and bed of one bench drill is enough now use. Eliminate those additional needless facility are OK the factory space with enough put apart, so that buy a variety of different equipment tools. Copartner Angelo Carnevale plans to increase CNC lathe next. Be in Michael Angelo company, the change of the pattern plate method that make includes to use the CAM that is based on knowledge to arrive from manual process designing the process of automatic process designing. In the past, handlers establishs pattern plate machine program through standing before CNC according to blue print data-in. Data includes X-Y coordinate, the other aperture of the cutting parameter of tool amount and bore method and requirement of specific plank treatment processes an operation. This kind of method compares take time, but if programmer inputs all information the CAM system of the workshop,will found same process to be met more take time. However the factory has had the CAM software that achieves this goal now. This software can identify all machine on the CAD model of pattern plate to machine aperture, it appoints correct tool and parameter for those aperture, generate NC code automatically thereby. Jockey and programmer need to press only use a mouse. This software creates the pattern what work by hand in the process to expend, defer and error from the purify in important step, it is an example of automata. It is similar to go up automatically the automation of material equipment, reduce the person's participation however, implementation job is efficient. Graph 1: Showed the pattern plate machine program that creates automatically knows step really in the graph, place can identify the feature of the CAD model of pattern plate with software. Showed the program when be being founded, be decreased to just nod a mouse a few times in the interpose of go-between of process designing process just. And the important sense that Michael Angelo company uses the experience of this kind of software to use palpability of graphic method explain to invest redound about automata. The redound after a few automation are transformed comes from at part of the other in working procedure corresponding profit changes, be in at first in the analysis, both between appear and do not have the correlation with close what. For example, the automata of pattern plate process designing vacated floor space. Also save gave equipment to machine can effect, can use at mould finish machining now. Machine constant as a result of what improve, the actual cutting time of can cut pattern plate, this is machine constant as a result of what improve. It returns time of can subtractive setting, and aux used to often installs calorie of board in machining center. In short, original artificial process designing is time-consuming, the factory can devote oneself to the place with the insufficient other in process now, make its easy thereby correct. The sort of method of programming is a so great burden previously, as a result is concealed at these other burdens, be not taken seriously. The jib of mould board core and model the geometrical appearance of antrum is to pass 3D mill to grind production to come out, but the mould that finish shapes far not only such. It is the assembly parts that all sorts of mechanical spare partses comprise. In addition include in these spare partses is to install the screw on pattern plate, seam pin surely, spend column, lining, runner, cooling pipe and ventilated system. Machine treatment any board need to machine aperture at first. The plank of a common may have 200 holes, have 20 kinds of different measurement and deviation. Complex cutting tool contrail is done not have in pattern plate treatment, but one kind differs " kind " complexity. For one given pattern plate undertakes programming is comprised by a few paces, the position of establish aperture, for every aperture (for example center, bore and tap) the correct series that selects cutting tool, and be the rate with every tool appropriate setting and feed rate. Because tool contrail appears very simple, the function that so typical CAM wraps increases in this program scarcely. Why that produces the method with a the swiftest pattern plate on the history namely is to let an able machinist be in a milling machine or this kind of direct method that machine machining center has machining to end from the beginning. But the main drawback of this kind of method always is clearly. To Michael Angelo company, time loss is one of problems. When this problem arises, the machining center that machines pattern plate often unused. Another problem is " mistake " , just additionally one kind of element that it is loss time. If has 200 opening, every Kong Dou has X value and Y value, jockey produces error when inputting these values is almost some. The result is: If have the treatment position mistake of an aperture, must solder to close and be machined again on drilling machine. Graph 2: Those tool contrail are not complex, but the sort of the aperture on pattern plate and amount make process designing has certain difficulty. The automation that implements programming with respect to time of can managing quite a few. Michael Angelo company wants to make this programming automation, with respect to OK and economic time, let a factory have a few adscititious industry thereby. Those who come from Cornerstone Technology " expert die maker " it is the software that makes this one circumstance becomes a possibility. It is the software of for pattern plate and base treatment special development, to create pattern plate program, the user in this software and feature of model of pattern plate CAD defines tool library and parameter library to close suitably. Many function makes its become a possibility, the application software that it comes from the machine that is a foundation with knowledge at having to machine the history - the EdgeCAM software of Pathtrace system. Michael Angelo company is in the process that realizes fundamental software, the factory was started a series of improve, mix these improvement because of the programming of automation, obtained finally bigger, additional productivity. Process improves below enumerate the benefit that other can assure program automation: ● factory needs redundant old drilling machine to undertake pattern plate is machined no longer. The lack of floor space is the obstacle that buys CNC lathe all the time, but take out bed of one bench drill, this obstacle also subsequently eliminate. When Nextpage ● moves process designing for hand of every pattern plate when handlers, themselves decides the rate that every cutting tool runs and feed rate. Among them a few choices are the individual preference that is based on them, and most choice is conservative speculation merely. Graph 3: As a result of managing time, the machine still has the capacity that undertakes all sorts of other work except treatment pattern plate now. Pattern plate machines all parameter that use in the process to install euqally rich effect with plant personnel now. They come from communal database entirely. Joe Barker of leader of department of CNC of Michael Angelo company is in the two time that about 20 hours spent in week, the tool stuff that uses factory first selection this database, improved in appropriate point recommend cutting parameter, and those who decide software is basic and decision-making, for example when bore and when to use helix mill. Time photograph compares ● and the programming that ask before, before the handling time of pattern plate often too short and cannot undertake analyse. But now become process designing namely for an instant almost, michael Angelo company can be in cutting time is so short that cutting time real value sees in much process. And machine treatment knowledge is centered in a database now, machine any improvement of processing technique can make treatment of all pattern plate is benefited at the same time. The workpiece of pattern plate installs card to be comprised by traditional clamping apparatus before ● factory. But, so poriferous to machine treatment, there is opening in every part part normally especially, handlers must move repeatedly the clamping apparatus treatment with finishing pattern plate. This kind of reduplicative installs calorie of job to be accepted, the reason that reason and conservative cutting parameter are accepted is same; Rise quite, time can make longer programming the loss is very small. But the factory has invested hardware to hold card in order to cancel the handiwork in treatment process now. Use magnetic workpiece to install card to secure pattern plate take one's place nowadays, can start when touching button. The setting time that improves from this and improvement cutting time appearance are united in wedlock, the capacity that automation brings the programming that has exceeded expectation of place of Michael Angelo company is released. Used at casing of extra work ejector pin now with the machining center that will machine pattern plate in the past, and equipment still is free the time of more than. Additional time is used shape core and model antrum finish machining. On the manufacturing industry market with intense today competition, "Model of a 3D touchs plot of 1000 pieces of 2D " . The line that watchs every thing to want to compare a few abstraction apparently continuously transmits more information, produce the understanding of older rate. But, should transfer 3D CAD from 2D (CAD) when the tool, can make productivity rises greatly, the result that improves a vision is among them one fraction nevertheless, like the one part of the iceberg. Graph 4: The place that the artificial process designing that cancels pattern plate facilitates the factory discovers the other on craft is insufficient, and they were not be clearly in the past, hold the time issue of card by hand for example. The factory uses magnetic workpiece to hold card now. SolidWorks divides Charlie Hess of president of company of the Fisher Unitech that sell business to say: "Before the investment return rate of 3D CAD technology compares 15 years get actually much. Because want to undertake the investment of one fraction can obtain a lot of functions holding cost only, more and more enterprises configured 3D CAD and realized more and honest investment redound. " carry effective investigation knowable, 3D space model is more effective, more of high yield with the products plan way that has competition ability more. 3D technology from since appearing already special maturity, because it reduces the obstacle in perhaps eliminating a lot of 2D world business and challenge, it brings design business quickly more profit: ◆ 3D system was eliminated potential, engineer or production production staff are right of the graph misinterpret. ◆ is in 3D design, the engineer can estimate in original design and solve cooperate and tolerancepublic errand problem. ◆ processing is large and complex assemble system. ◆ eliminates endless wrong examination.
