Development of Switching Function Generator for Fault Reasons of CNC Machine Tool

공작기계의 고장원인을 효과적으로 생성하기 위한 Switching Function Generator 개발

The fault analysis of the CNC machine tool which is controlled sequentially by PLC is generally based on ladder diagram. When machine tool has faults, it takes a lot of operator's experiences and times to identify logical relationship because ladder diagram is a step structured language. Therefore the technologies of finding out fault reasons automatically is necessary. In this paper, the SFG(Switching Function Generator) system is developed to analysis fault reasons correctly. The SF(Switching Function) and SSF(Step Switching Function) generated from SFG based on ladder diagram are experimented to identify the performance of SFG.
