본 연구에서 제시된 방법은 Fig.2(c)에 나타낸 방법으로 공구궤적의 검증과 더불어 NC공구궤적의 잘못된 부분과 정도를 찾아내 수정할 수 있도록하여 기존의 NC검증시스템의 비효율성을 해결하고자 했다.
NC simulation has been used to replace the test cutting of NC machining. Although it can reduce the NC part programming effort, it still has a problem. If any error is found during the simulation, then the part has to be reprogrammed and it is time consumming. This paper presents a method for verifying and editing the NC code after the post-processing without going back to the part programming stage. A data structure and an algorithm to verify and edit the NC code interactively with the aid of graphics is introduced. Z-map method is used for the shaded image display and cross-sectional view display of the macined parts. The method was implemented in a IBM/PC-386 with MS-Windows software, and the multi-window function of the of the MS-Windows is used for the simultaneous editing and verification.
