开放式数控系统中五轴样条插补功能的实现方法(英文)

针对现行复杂曲面加工常采用的五轴联动线性插补方法速度精度较低且数控文件大等缺点,利用非均匀有理 B 样条(NURBS)曲线在表示空间曲线时具有的优势,提出了一种适合于五轴联动实时插补运算的双 NURBS 曲线指令格式。同时介绍了这种格式数控代码的生成过程。给出了在自行研制的开放式数控系统中实现其插补功能的方法。通过实例表明所提出的方法完全可以克服五轴线性插补方法的不足之处,并且是切实可行的。

Realization Methodology of a 5-axis Spline Interpolator in an Open CNC System

By making use of the advantages of non-uniform rational B-spline (NURBS) curves to represent spatial curves, an instruction format with double NURBS curves suitable for 5-axis coordinated real-time interpolation is presented to replace the current 5-axis coordinated linear interpolation method defective in low-speed, low-accuracy and enormous numerical control (NC) files in sculptured surface machining. A generation procedure of the NC files with the presented format is introduced and the method to realize the interpolation in an open computer numerical control (CNC) system is developed by ourselves. These illustrated the feasibility of the proposed method and its capability of avoiding all the shortages of 5-axis linear interpolation method.
