Summary: | CNC machines have gone through tremendous upgrades along the years. However, conventional CNC machines could not find its place in the new era of machining due to its limitation in compatibility, language difference and control has caused increase in terms of repurchase cost, reinstallations, reconfigurations and also training. This paper covers the system which has been designed and developed from outdated and conventional PROLIGHT 1000 Milling CNC machine from Light Intelitek which further discussed in detail based upon upgrades of hardware, architecture, and algorithm design. Based on the system and software developed, there are several interfaces for the software classified based on different information needed and explained in the paper. Then, the flow process of using the application will be explained along with the data to be inputted, function of buttons and other features. The designed system software is established as UTHM Open CNC Controller (UOCC) under the ISO 14649 of STEP-NC environment. |
