  • Publication number: 20020117987
    Abstract: A force feedback manual pulse generator, comprising a driver and a motor, driving a saddle of a machine tool along an axis for advancing a cutting tool, a CNC controlling device, issuing commands for controlling the driver to drive the motor, a manual pulse generator, and, as the main characteristic, a braking system and a force feedback unit. The manual pulse generator has a handwheel, operated by a user, and an encoder, generating a signal according to a turning movement of the handwheel for controlling the driver to drive the motor. The braking system is mounted on the manual pulse generator, creating a braking force and thus increasing resistance to the turning movement of the handwheel. The force feedback unit senses load experienced by the motor when driving the saddle and controlling the braking system. This is done in a way that upon increasing load of the motor the braking force is increased, so that the user, when turning the handwheel, feels resistance to cutting.
