Research on the Design and Development of Remote CNC Tool System Based on Computer

Modern manufacturing industry pursues efficiency and quality, especially the existence of large-capacity CNC programs for multi-species, small-batch enterprises, increasingly dependent on remote control and management of CNC machine tools. High efficiency, high speed, low attenuation rate and low BER of remote two-way program transmission can significantly simplify workers' operation procedures, reduce program entry error rate and standardize the management of CNC programs. At present, the remote CNC tool system still has great room and potential to ameliorate in the level of precision, automation, integration and informatization, and plays a vital role and impact on the cost and quality of processed products. On account of this, this paper first analyses the concept and typical characteristics of CNC tool system, then studies the design and development of remote CNC tool system, and gives the development and utilization principles and Strategies of remote CNC tool system. This paper builds on WINDOWS to develop an application that runs on a PC and its compatible machines to achieve multitasking remote control of CNC tools. The system allows simultaneous file editing, etc., while performing RS-232 serial communication. The system does not require additional hardware and can make full use of the PC's hardware resources, with good compatibility and control accuracy. The application of this system can significantly improve the manufacturing efficiency of enterprises and realize networked and information-based manufacturing integrated CNC tool control.
