3 1.Introduction to CNC machine CNC = Computerized Numerical Control

4 History and Development of Technology Conventional M/C NC M/C (1948 US Air force, MIT 21 months ) st commercial NC m/c CINCINNATIC HYDROTEL VERTICAL-SPINDLE MACHINE CNC M/C

5 History and Development of Technology

6 Conventional vs. CNC machine Machine Structure The CNC machine tools are basically built in the same way as conventional machine tools. The difference lies in the fact that the machine components relevant for turning and milling processes are controlled by computers.

7 Conventional vs. CNC machine Function

8 Conventional vs. CNC machine

9 Conventional vs. CNC machine Conventional machine eyes, hands, brain, skill CNC machine Program Control unit Motor Motion Measuring & Reflection Unit No skill is required for operating CNC m/c.

10 Conventional machine CNC machine

11 Difference between Conventional M/C & CNC M/C Item Conventional machine CNC machine 1. Movement Acme screw Ball screw 2. Feed Manual Motor 3. Measurement Manual Linear scale

12 Advantages of CNC Flexible, high accuracy Short production time Complex shapes Short setting time No skill requirement Short inspection time/ high quality product Low cost

13 Disadvantages of CNC High machine cost Complicated maintenance Skill & training are required for programming and maintenance. Parts are imported from aboard. High tooling cost Temperature, humidity & dust must be controlled.

40 Driving System The requirement is that the driving system has to response accurately according to the programmed instructions. The motor is coupled either directly or through a gear box to the machine lead screw to moves the machine slide or the spindle. Three types of electrical motors are commonly used: 1. Stepping motor 2. DC Servo motor 3. AC Servo moto

41 1. Stepping Motor The stepper motor is known by its property to convert a train of input pulses (typically square wave pulses) into a precisely defined increment in the shaft position. Each pulse moves the shaft through a fixed angle. Multiple "toothed" electromagnets arranged around a central gear-shaped piece of iron. The electromagnets are energized by an external driver circuit or a micro controller. In that way, the motor can be turned by a precise angle.

42 What does Stepper means? To make the motor shaft turn, first, one electromagnet is given power, which magnetically attracts the gear's teeth. When the gear's teeth are aligned to the first electromagnet, they are slightly offset from the next electromagnet. This means that when the next electromagnet is turned on and the first is turned off, the gear rotates slightly to align with the next one. From there the process is repeated. Each of those rotations is called a "step", with an integer number of steps making a full rotation.

46 Full Step Operation Four Steps per revolution i.e. 90 deg. steps.

47 Half Step Operation Eight steps per. revolution i.e. 45 deg. steps.

48 2 1 N N N 1 S S b a S N 1 S 2 Winding number 1 2 a 6 pole rotor Winding number 2 b One step

49 Six pole rotor, two electro magnets How many steps are required for one complete revolution?

50 Practical Stepper motor operation The top electromagnet (1) is turned on, attracting the nearest teeth of a gear-shaped iron rotor. With the teeth aligned to electromagnet 1, they will be slightly offset from electromagnet 2 The top electromagnet (1) is turned off, and the right electromagnet (2) is energized, pulling the nearest teeth slightly to the right. This results in a rotation of 3.6 in this example.

51 The bottom electromagnet (3) is energized; another 3.6 rotation occurs. The left electromagnet (4) is enabled, rotating again by 3.6. When the top electromagnet (1) is again enabled, the teeth in the sprocket will have rotated by one tooth position; since there are 25 teeth, it will take 100 steps to make a full rotation in this example.

56 Advantages / Disadvantages Advantages:- Low cost for control achieved Ruggedness Simplicity of construction Can operate in an open loop control system Low maintenance Less likely to stall or slip Will work in any environment Disadvantages:- Require a dedicated control circuit Use more current than D.C. motors High torque output achieved at low speeds

57 Open Loop Positioning Systems Stepper Motor calculations It uses a stepper motor to rotate the lead screw. A stepper motor is driven by series of electrical pulses generated by MCU. For each pulse the motor rotates a fraction of revolution called Step Angle, it is given by Where, n s = Number of step angles for the motor (an integer). If n p is the pulses received by the motor then angle through which motor rotates is

58 Stepper Motor calculations Lead Screw is connected to the motor shaft through a gear box. Angle of the lead screw rotation taking the gear ratio into account is given by r g = Gear ratio = A m /A= N m / N N m = RPM of motor, N= RPM of lead Screw The linear movement of worktable is given by p = pitch of lead screw

59 Stepper Motor calculations Total number of pulses required to achieve a specified x-position increment is calculated by: Where,n s = 360/ α Control pulses are transmitted from pulse generator at a certain frequency which drives the work table at the corresponding velocity. The rotational speed of lead screw depends on the frequency of the pulse train Equation (1) N = RPM of lead screw, f p = frequency of pulse train (Hz, Pulses/sec)

60 Stepper Motor calculations The table travel speed in the direction of lead screw axis is determined by: Equation (2) Where, V t = Table travel speed (mm/min) f r = Table feed rate (mm/min) p= Lead screw pitch (mm/rev) The required pulse train frequency to drive the table at a specified linear travel rate by combining equations (1) and (2):

61 2. DC Servo Motor The principle of operation is based on the rotation of an armature winding in a permanently energized magnetic field. The armature winding is connected to a commutator, which is a cylinder of insulated copper segments mounted on the shaft. DC current is passed to the commutator through carbon brushes, which are connected to the machine terminals.

62 Servo Motor Detail Actuator Reduction gear Position feedback + 5V Potentiometer (closed loop system) Small electric DC motor

63 3. AC Servo Motor In an AC servomotor, the rotor is a permanent magnet while the stator is equipped with 3-phase windings. The speed of the rotor is equal to the rotational frequency of the magnetic field of the stator, which is regulated by the frequency converter.

64 CNC Programming Programming consists of a series of instructions in form of letter codes Preparatory Codes: G codes- Initial machining setup and establishing operating conditions N codes- specify program line number to executed by the MCU Axis Codes: X,Y,Z - Used to specify motion of the slide along X, Y, Z direction Feed and Speed Codes: F and S- Specify feed and spindle speed Tool codes: T specify tool number Miscellaneous codes M codes For coolant control and other activities
