  • Patent number: 10416655
    Abstract: Machining methods for machine tools where a workpiece can be manually moved by an operator or by automatic operation. A drawing file is displayed on a screen and machining is performed. An evaluation is performed to determine if the processed points of the workpiece match the desired processing coordinates within a tolerance range. Accordingly, the system is selectively activated to prevent processing at incorrect processing points or deviating from the tolerance range of the desired processing points. Processing yield rate is improved and all processing points are monitored by the system and displayed on a drawing file screen.

  • Patent number: 10360121
    Abstract: Embodiments generally relate to a universal debug design which involves integrating a debug controller and a debug card with display together into a single debug design. Debug codes, such as power-on self-test (POST) codes and other error codes, are generated by various subsystems of a server-related system. The codes are transmitted to a controller, which stores the codes in memory. In some embodiments, a multiplexer outputs one debug code from the multitude of received codes, based on a user or event selecting which desired debug code should be displayed. In some embodiments, a decoder converts and sends the LED display signals to a debug card, which displays the debug code on a 7-segment LED display.
