Abstract:
Automated tool changing of CNC machines reduces the cycle time of operations as most processes require a number of different tools to complete a task. The machine can be pre-loaded with the required tools and programmed to automatically retrieve the tools as required. CNC machines will often run unattended or work too quickly for manual intervention, so it is important that safety features and checks are built in to prevent damage. The purpose of this research project was to modify a tool changing system for a reconfigurable machine tool (RMT), which was previously developed in the Department

Abstract:
For the problem of reconfigurable machine tools existing in the field of manufacturing and processing cost, the reconfiguration strategy of a reconfigurable machine tool (RMT) was proposed based on the analysis of polymorphism processing tasks. Firstly, the models of fixed cost and reconstruction cost in per production cycle were built. On this basis, the cost model of RMT during the whole production cycle was built. Then the Dijkstra’s algorithm was used to solve the model and the optimal reconstruction program was obtained. Finally, a RMT for the engine block production was taken as an examp

Abstract:
Computerized control systems for machine tools must generate coordinated movements of the separately driven axes of motion in order to trace accurately a predetermined path of the cutting tool relative to the workpiece. However, since the dynamic properties of the individual machine axes are not exactly equal, undesired contour errors are generated. The contour error is defined as the distance between the predetermined and actual path of the cutting tool. The cross-coupling controller (CCC) strategy was introduced to effectively decrease the contour errors in conventional, orthogonal machine t

Abstract:
The traditional structure of machines (such as lathe, milling, shaper, slotter, drilling and planer) has become questionable because of the modular concepts (such as modularity, scalability, convertibility, mobility and flexibility) and reconfiguration becomes a promising approach towards modular manufacturing machines, in which manufacturing techniques are independent of changes. In this area, reconfigurable machine tool (RMT) forms a new class of modular machines in current manufacturing scenario where the manufacturing industry put a strong pressure on good quality and price reduction.

Purpose Reconfigurable machines tools (RMTs) are gaining momentum as the new solutions to customised products in the manufacturing world.

The reconfigurable manufacturing system (RMS) is a new manufacturing technology and paradigm that resolves the contradictions regarding high efficiency, low cost and flexible production in the mass production of part families.

A new approach is proposed for the design of RMTs, which is closely related to the process planning of a given box-type part family.

For decades, metal corrugated sheets have usually been manufactured using conventional roll-forming machines with lower and upper rollers or a die and a press as the main shaping elements. However, these machines and their related processes present economic disadvantages because of additional expenses required to improve and manage forming tools. To overcome these drawbacks, reconfigurable machines, such as dedicated and flexible manufacturing systems, were used as alternatives; they possess high flexibility for accomplishing forming processes.

In doing this, the identification of clusters with identical patterns can potentially lead to savings in machine design and reconfiguration costs. To identify these patt
