Abstract

STEP-NC data model (ISO 14649) is introduced to the integration of NC machining and on-machine inspection (OMI) to improve the quality of machined parts. A framework of STEP-NC controller with OMI is proposed in this paper. As machining and OMI simulation process play important roles in STEP-NC controller with OMI to verify the machining and probing process, the implementing method of its functional modules including interpreter, machining simulation and inspecting simulation module which are designed by using Java and Java 3D were presented. Then a case study of an example part is also provided focusing on the integration of the machining and the probing processes, to demonstrate the feasibility of the generated machining path and probing path.
