Study and Implementation of CNC Lathe Machining Simulation System

Abstract

Virtual manufacturing technology is used to simulate the computer numerical control (CNC) lathe, virtual prototype of the CNC lathe is established. In the simulating process, the explain module and the check module of the CNC code are analyzed, the differential radial dynamic scaling technology is used to simulate the workpiece forming process, then the motion simulation of the virtual CNC lathe system is realized, and the system is drived by the CNC code. The machining process and workpiece forming process can be observed directly in the virtual environment, so the correctness of the CNC code can be checked in advance to avoid the interference, collisions or other problems in the actual lathe processing and reduce the the scrap rate of the workpiece and tool in the actual machining process.
