Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A thermal displacement correction training unit has a virtual machine tool, a virtual machine tool control unit and a virtual machine tool display unit. The virtual machine tool has a precision decline imitating unit for imitating the process precision decline caused by the heat during operation in the virtual machine tool unit, and a precision decline calculation unit for finding the amount of precision decline that represents the process precision decline in the process machine unit imitated by the process precision imitating unit. The virtual machine tool control unit has a precision correction unit for finding the correction amount by which the processing point is corrected in response to thermal displacement, and a correction amount adjustment unit for adjusting the correction amount found by the precision correction unit. The virtual machine tool display unit displays the amount of precision decline and the correction amount.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

1 . A thermal displacement correction training unit having on a computer a virtual machine tool unit, a virtual machine tool control unit for virtually controlling said virtual machine tool unit, a virtual machine tool operating unit for operating said virtual machine tool unit and said virtual machine tool control unit, and a virtual machine tool display unit, characterized in that said virtual machine tool unit has: a precision decline imitating unit for imitating the process precision decline caused by the heat during operation of said virtual machine tool unit; and a precision decline calculating unit for finding the amount of precision decline that represents the process precision decline in said virtual machine tool unit that is imitated in said precision decline imitating unit, said virtual machine tool control unit has: a precision correction unit for finding the correction amount by which the processing point is corrected in response to thermal displacement; and a correction amount adjustment unit for adjusting the correction amount that is found by said precision correction unit, and said virtual machine tool display unit displays the amount of precision decline found by said precision decline calculating unit in said virtual machine tool unit and the correction amount adjusted by said correction amount adjustment unit in said virtual machine tool control unit. 2 . The thermal displacement correction training unit according to claim 1 , characterized in that said virtual machine tool display unit displays at least either the change in the processing point in said virtual machine tool unit found in said precision decline imitating unit or the change in the processing point found in said precision correction unit. 3 . The thermal displacement correction training unit according to claim 1 , characterized in that at least either the amount of precision decline found by said precision decline calculation unit or the precision correction amount for said precision correction unit has been set in advance. 4 . The thermal displacement correction training unit according to claim 1 , characterized in that said virtual machine tool display unit displays said virtual machine tool unit.
