A new reconfigurable logic for CNC lathe controllers

Reconfigurable devices have been developed to implement the control algorithms in Computer Numerically Controlled (CNC) systems recently. Reconfigurable devices provide high execution performance of CNC and flexibilities to the system design. However, little work was done on the implementation of reconfigurable logic in a CNC lathe. This paper developed a new resampling algorithm for the synchronized movement in threading and a reconfigurable logic in a CNC lathe. An experimental system was constructed and the test results validated the proposed architecture.
