报告题目：Striving for a Complete CAD/CAPP/CAM/CNC Integration
Abstract：Despite of many newly developed manufacturing technologies, computer numerically controlled (CNC) machine tools continue to play an essential role in the modern manufacturing systems. There is however a deep concern over the way CNC machine tools function in a contemporary manufacturing system that requires a higher level of adaptability, flexibility and reconfigurablity. This is mainly due to the existing interface for communications between a CAM system and a CNC machine tool, and among the CNC machine tools. To be more specific, it is the machine control data, i.e. NC part program based on the more-than-50-year-old ISO 6983 standard, that presents a weak link for an integrated manufacturing environment. Today a new standard ISO14649, informally known as STEP-NC, is being used as the basis for development of the next generation of CNC controllers. This standard gives CAM and CNC vendors the opportunity to integrate the capabilities of a CAD/CAM system with a new bread of intelligent CNC controllers, which has bi-directional communication of information representing standardised geometric and manufacturing data. Thus design and manufacturing information can now for the first time be unified under one single data structure.
This talk presents a review of STEP-NC developments and the related research work being carried out by a number of international groups. The main focus is on some of the work carried out in the Manufacturing Systems Laboratory at University of Auckland, i.e. STEP-Compliant CAPP System for Collaborative Manufacturing and STEP-Compliant adaptor for Linking CAPP with CNC
