CNC machine tool is the abbreviation of the digital control machine tool. It is an automatic machine tool with a program control system. The control system can logically process the program with control code or other symbolic instructions, decode it, express it with coded numbers, and input it into the numerical control device through the information carrier. This kind of organic integration system of software and hardware modules to realize the related functions of numerical control technology is the numerical control unit of the numerical control machine tool and the carrier of numerical control technology. In the numerical control machine tool, the operation and monitoring are all completed in the numerical control unit, which is the brain of the numerical control machine tool.

Project Background

CNC machine tools can solve the problems of a complex, precision, small-batch, and variety of parts processing. It is a flexible and efficient automatic machine tool, which represents the development direction of modern precision manufacturing. It is widely used in manufacturing, information industry, printing machinery, medical equipment, and military equipment. The main function of machine tool numerical control integrated machine (here refers to the all-in-one panel PC) is to use digital information and standard code to process and transfer information, use the control method of the panel PC to assist design, manufacturing, and management, and continuously improve in the aspects of intelligence, precision, and flexibility.

Project Requirements

Under the requirements of precision, intelligence, miniaturization, and high-speed of CNC machine tools, CNC machine tools have higher requirements for all-in-one panel PC on the CNC machine tools. Such as powerful performance and computing ability,  and support to control all kinds of machine tool control software, process control codes, and other symbolic instructions, and compile, transmit and accurately control, then complete carving, finishing, drilling, and tapping, sunken and imitating shape, serialization and thread milling. It can adapt to the processing environment, and realize the performance of dustproof, shockproof, and anti-interference, and built with good heat dissipation effect and high stability. And further, meeting the needs of 24/7-hour uninterrupted processing, and realize the intelligent and optimal control for the machine tool.

Case Study

Touch Think 17-inch industrial panel PC applies to the CNC machine tool integrated machine, customized for CNC machine tool control, with strong processing capacity, stable system, and accurate control ability, have provided numbers of applications of CNC machine tool cases. Reasonably organize input, processing, and output to make the whole system work coordinately.

The Touch Think industrial panel PC used in the CNC machine tool integrated machine adopts industrial-grade components, rugged industrial-grade mainboard, and compatible with 99% of CNC software, its powerful capability of data collection, data feedback, and precise control, improving and stabilizing the accuracy and flexibility of machine tool operation.

The industrial all-in-one panel PC built from one-piece of the die-casting, seamless front panel, dust-proof and anti-corrosion, effectively prevent dust from entering into the numerical control device, prevent dust and metal powder from causing the insulation resistance between components to avoid decline and failure, even component damage and other problems.

What's more, the anti-electromagnetic interference internal structure design offers excellence in terms of shockproof and wide voltage operation, which meets the complex working environment of CNC machine tools and the anti-vibration needs during processing.

The mainboard is designed with wide voltage operation and high protection in terms of anti-surge. It can deal with the sudden voltage change during the operation of numerical control, and prevent the machine and adapter from failure and operate stably.

The abundant I/O interface provides a guarantee for data transmission and peripherals connection.

Case Benefit

The numerical control machine tool is representative of modern precision manufacturing. Compared with the ordinary machine tools, what engineers need to do is to input and edit the program, load and unload parts, prepare tools, observe the processing state, and detect parts through the integrated machine of the numerical control machine tool. The labor intensity is greatly reduced, and the intensive labor is turned to the intelligent type; the precise digital signal control, high stability, and high efficiency are achieved. Besides, the numerical control machine tool can change speed automatically under the control of the industrial panel PC, and multiple procedures can be set up for continuous processing, so as to reduce the working procedure turnover time and improve the production efficiency.

Summary

The CNC machine tool integrated machine is specially developed for the control and operation environment of the CNC machine tool. In view of the performance needs, environmental changes, and problems that may be encountered in operation, corresponding countermeasures are given, which can meet the application needs of many different types of machine tools.
