A Study on Performance Evaluation of 3-Axis Pipe Profile-Cutting Machine

Abstract

A performance of CNC 3-axis pipe profile-cutting machine we developed was evaluated by measuring and verifying a positioning accuracy of its feeding unit and a cutting shape accuracy of pipe workpiece. The positioning accuracy was verified by comparing moving distance actuated by PLC motion controller with actual one measured by a laser interferometer. The cutting shape accuracy was also verified by comparing a cutting shape obtained through scanning and 3D modeling the pipe workpiece with that through CL data. 3축 파이프 형상절단기 개요[2]그림1은 실제로 설계된 도면을 바탕으로 제작된 3축파이프 형상 절단기의 외관이다.
