Patents by Inventor Yasuhito ISHIKAWA

Yasuhito ISHIKAWA has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Patent number: 10976717
    Abstract: The interference monitoring device comprises: an advanced position calculation unit that calculates an advanced position of the tool or the workpiece ahead by a predetermined period of time based on the program; an interference check unit that draws an estimated shape of a machined part of the workpiece after machining based on the advanced position, and makes the interference check based on the estimated shape of the machined part of the workpiece in the drawing; and an uncut region calculation unit that calculates an error between the estimated shape of the machined part of the workpiece in the drawing and an actual shape of the machined part of the workpiece after machining as an uncut region in the estimated shape of the machined part of the workpiece in the drawing. The interference check unit does not make the interference check in the uncut region.

  • Patent number: 10048675
    Abstract: An object of the present invention is to provide a numerical controller that performs interference check based on a look-ahead position before a feedrate varies by taking the variation in the feedrate into consideration and controls the change of an override safely. To achieve this object, the numerical controller is configured such that, when calculating a coordinate value of a look-ahead position which a movable part subjected to interference check reaches after a look-ahead period elapses from a current position at a current time, the numerical controller calculates the look-ahead position assuming that the movable part moves at a predetermined feedrate of which the upper limit is the maximum feedrate.

  • Publication number: 20180173190
    Abstract: A numerical controller includes: a monitoring unit which monitors a delay time between two machining units after the two machining units simultaneously start operations in the same direction without being in synchronism with each other; a determination unit which determines whether or not the delay time exceeds a predetermined time; and a control unit in which when the delay time exceeds the predetermined time, one of the two machining units is stopped.
