This software was
developed in Borland TurboC 3.0
under the guidance of Dr. S.K
Sinha (during the fifth semester winter vacations). It
shows the simulation of a CNC vertical milling machine on the basis of
CNC programs written under the ISO standards. It consists of an editor,
in which we write the CNC codes, and the simulator screen shows the
graphical simulation of the cutting process and myriads of other
information like the current x, y, z coordinates of the tool, coolant
position, tool diameter and the CNC line under execution etc.
This software was
awarded second prize at the software competition held by Maharaja
Surajmal Institute of Technology (New
Delhi).
Motivation
for making this software:
CNC programming is
an integral part of the Manufacturing scenario and adept CNC programmers
should have knowledge of implementing CNC codes in the most efficient
way. For this purpose they require immense amount of practice, but the
industry cannot afford to waste raw materials and machine time just for
the sake of practice of the workers. To solve this problem CNC
simulators come in handy, which provide the operator a virtual machining
environment to hone their skills. But due to their discrete
unavailability in the commercial market and their enormous costs, a need
arises for software which could serve as a training tool to cater to the
general needs of aspiring CNC programmers. This was the motivation for
making this software.
