COMPUTER DYNAMIC SIMULATION FOR PRISMATIC PARTS MANUFACTURED ON MACHINING CENTER

This paper describes a dynamic simulation system for manufacturing prismatic components on machining centers named NCDSS. It is a subsystem of CAD/CAPP/NC integrated system for prismatic parts that we are working on. Based on the system of CAD and CAPP, it can automati. cally generate NC program used on machining centers and can simulate the machining process in the sequence of technology. Techniques of automatically producing NC program for prismaic parts and the method of dynamic simulation are also discussed.
