Electronics and Software Systems for Machining
The world's first !
Cartesian display
The Cartesian Display allows the machinist to view CAD geometry and move the cutter with respect to that geometry. The DXF model is stored in the Display so that it has an exact mathematical model of the part allowing the machinist to position the cutter precisely and produce dimensions without even knowing them.
Rotary table integration
An optional integrated electronic Rotary Table allows the machinist to produce any angled surface. The line is identified and the Display instructed to align that entity with either the X or Y axis. The Display computes the angle and communicates it to the Rotary table controller
glass scale integration
The Cartesian Display is meant to be used with an ordinary DRO as an augmentation to the DRO. The two components are unaware of each other, they simply share the same scale signals. The Cartesian Display can also be used stand-alone; also the machinist may continue using the DRO as usual
tactical viewing
The machinist may pan and zoom the image to give the best view of the machining action
"radar" cutter distancing
The Cartesian Display contains the DXF part model. Thus it has an exact mathematical representation of the part. When an entity is put on "radar" the display updates in real-time the exact distance from the cutter to the line. When D=0, you are exactly, on that line and producing that drawing dimension.
