Technique for synthetic modeling of the hardware architecture in machining system reconfiguration

Abstract

A technique for synthetic modeling of the hardware architecture for reconfigurable machine tools (RMTs) is proposed. The aim is the verification of machine control. The virtual environment proposed allows to simulate RMT working in order to generate a set of kinematically viable reconfigurable machine tools that meet the given design specifications. Moreover the software also builds the layer for communication between modules controllers. The technique proposed in this paper embodied by the new RMT machining system reconfiguration software is presented. This technique allows for the simplification of RMT system development and enhances development ability.
