Abstract

In this paper, the architecture of real time embedded control system for machine tool is briefly introduced. The hardware of the control system is composed of ARM, DSP and FPGA, for these microprocessors provide the control system with high performance, better reliability and low cost. The design of hardware that is divided into motherboard design and IP design is detailed. The control software system is implemented based on the RTAI-Linux that is a real-time operating system. The components of the software system and communication among the components are described. Finally the control system was implemented
