  • Publication number: 20050137739
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a method of controlling a numerically controlled machine tool having a plurality of feed shafts. Also, the present invention relates to a numerically controlled machine tool. According to the present invention, it is possible to solve conventional problems so as to realize highly accurate machining even when a moving body of the machine is moved at high speed. As the means for solving the problems, an appropriate command corresponding to a frictional force of the feed mechanism of the numerically controlled machine tool and also corresponding to a change in the weight of a workpiece is estimated by calculation, and the thus estimated command is outputted into the drive unit of the feed shaft motor so as to drive the feed shaft motor.

  • Patent number: 6291959
    Abstract: A method and an apparatus for controlling a numerically controlled machine tool, wherein the heat generation amount and the temperature of a drive unit including a servo amplifier 15b and a feed shaft motor 3 are computed by a drive unit heat generation amount computing unit 31 by simulation, and from the computed heat generation amount and the computed temperature, the total heat generation amount of the drive unit, the cutting feed heat generation amount, the cutting load heat generation amount, etc. are computed by a feed heat generation amount computing unit 39, so that the cutting feed rate override value of the numerically controlled machine tool 1 is computed by a cutting feed rate override computing unit 27 and effectuated by being output to a NC unit. Further, based on the temperature of the drive unit computed by a computing unit 31 or the temperature computed by a temperature data computing unit 47 or the temperature detected by a temperature detection sensor 49, etc.
