  • Publication number: 20180275639
    Abstract: A numerical control system of a machine tool includes an analysis device. The analysis device includes acquisition portions which acquire chronological speed control data when the work is machined and which acquire spatial machined surface measurement data after the machining of the work, a data-associating processing portion which associates the speed control data and the machined surface measurement data with each other, a machined surface failure detection portion which detects failures on the machined surface of the work, an identification portion which identifies the speed control data of failure locations corresponding to the machined surface measurement data of the failure locations, a failure interval detection portion which detects the interval of the failures and a calculation portion which calculates the frequency of vibrations based on a machining speed based on the speed control data of the failure locations and the interval of the failures.

  • Publication number: 20180259932
    Abstract: A servomotor control device includes: a servomotor; a driven body that is driven by way of the servomotor; a connection mechanism that connects the servomotor and the driven body to transmit power of the servomotor to the driven body; and a motor control unit that controls the servomotor, in which the motor control unit includes: a force acquisition section that acquires a drive force acting on the driven body at a connection part between the connection mechanism and the driven body; and a rigidity estimation section that estimates a magnitude of rigidity of the connection mechanism, based on position information of the servomotor and a drive force acquired by the force acquisition section when causing the servomotor to rotate in a state mechanically fixing the driven body.
