Numerical Control technology, referred to as numerical control (NC) technology, is a technology that uses digital information to automatically control an object. The control object can be displacement, angle, speed, temperature, pressure, flow, color, etc. The control system that adopts numerical control technology is called numerical control system. The numerical control system that adopts general computer hardware structure and uses control software to realize numerical control function is called computer numerical control (CNC) system. A machine tool equipped with a CNC system is called a CNC machine tool.
CNC machine tools are produced to solve the automation of complex profile parts processing. In 1948, the American PARSONS company first proposed the idea of CNC machine tools when developing a machine tool for processing helicopter blade profiles. After three years of improvement and research on white programming, CNC machine tools entered the practical stage, and commercial CNC machine tools appeared on the market. In 1958, KEANEY & TRECKER Company of the United States first successfully developed a machining center with a white moving tool changer in the world.
my country began to develop CNC machine tools in 1958, and in the 1970s, simple CNC machine tools began to be used in production. They use the single-board computer as the control core, the digital tube as the display, and the stepper motor as the executive element. In the early 1980s, due to the introduction of 1:1 advanced CNC technology, the quality and performance of my I:9 CNC machine tools have been greatly improved. They have complete manual operation panel and friendly man-machine interface, can be equipped with DC or AC servo drive, realize semi-closed or closed-loop control, can carry out linkage control of 2-4 axes, have tool magazine management function and rich logic control function.
Since the 1990s, my country has begun to develop in the direction of high-end CNC machine tools. Some high-end CNC key projects have passed the national appraisal and have been applied in engineering. At the beginning of the 21st century, high-performance CNC systems such as Aerospace I, Huazhong I, and Huazhong 2000 have achieved high-speed, high-precision, efficient and economical processing effects, and can complete five-coordinate real-time interpolation control to complete high-complexity surface processing.
Today’s CNC machine tools have occupied a very important position in mechanical processing, and their applications are becoming more and more extensive. The development trend of CNC machine tools is that the process is concentrated, high-speed, high-precision and easy to use, and improve reliability. With the development of numerical control technology, intelligent, flexible, agile and networked manufacturing technologies such as flexible manufacturing system (FMS), computer integrated manufacturing system (CIMS), automated unmanned workshop (FA), etc. direction of industry development.
