Description
Summary:New technologies, such as: additive, hybrid technologies based on new physical principles, machining of new (non-traditional) structures, etc., envisage new requirements for control systems. The tasks of controlling non-traditional processes go beyond the capability of classical open CNC systems which does not allow them to be used to solve the new range of tasks. An underlying computing platform enabling building on its base specialized CNC systems for non-traditional processes has been created. A limited and at the same time extensible set of software and hardware components that implement the new processing technologies has been defined, and a solution matrix for the subsequent synthesis of specialized CNC systems has been built. The procedure of the synthesis of specialized CNC systems is illustrated by an example of a five-axis water jet cutting machine and a machine for selective laser sintering.
