Development of real-time database handling system for turning operation

선삭공정용 데이터베이스의 실시간 운용 시스템의 개발

The information with regard to the working range of lathe, cutting tool, cutting condition is managed as Database system for turning operation as one part of CAM system. Data with regard to the working range of lathe, cutting tool, cutting condition are stored by the DBMS(Data Base Management System) and can be added, modified, deleted and retrieved for realtime usages. Data stored in Database system are searched to select the most proper cutting tool and cutting condition with the input data fed from the design stage. Codes in regards to tool shape are displayed on graphic mode for easy selection for user and thus presents a good decision support for tool selection. The system developed in this work is operated by the pull down menu on the IBM PC/AT personal computer, or compatible series.
