Abstract This paper develops an integrated CAD/CAM adaptive control CNC system for milling operations. This research deals with the integration of the geometric modelling of the product and the control of the machining operation. The geometric modelling provides a complete description of part geometries providing its database for the analysis and manufacturing of the part. The modelling of machining operations develops a better understanding of the process for control evaluation. The system contains the automatic generation of NC part program through CAD and CAM system. CAD system is used to define the geometry which may be used by a CAM program for tooth path generation. Another feature of the system is that it uses the concept of adaptive control force constraint to overcome the unpredictable changes in the machining process. These changes may occur in various factors such as work geometry, material, and tool wear . This concept uses feedrate manipulation to maintain a specified cutting force in the presence of varying machining conditions. This requires a model to study the |
