Embodiment Construction

[0040]The present invention is directed to machine tool settings and more particularly to the provisioning of tool instructions directly through a touch screen interface displaying a work piece.

[0041]The ensuing description provides representative embodiment(s) only, and is not intended to limit the scope, applicability or configuration of the disclosure. Rather, the ensuing description of the embodiment(s) will provide those skilled in the art with an enabling description for implementing an embodiment or embodiments of the invention. It being understood that various changes can be made in the function and arrangement of elements without departing from the spirit and scope as set forth in the appended claims. Accordingly, an embodiment is an example or implementation of the inventions and not the sole implementation. Various appearances of “one embodiment,”“an embodiment” or “some embodiments” do not necessarily all refer to the same embodiments. Although various features of the in...

Abstract

Computer numerical control (CNC) machines execute a process automatically unless a condition occurs that triggers one or more alarms that terminate the process. Accordingly, CNC laser cutting post-process inspection is usually non-existent or minimal. However, with CNC laser welding it is more common for a visual inspection or automated inspection to be performed to verify that the process was completed. Similar issues occur when single piece parts are required in addition to which executing an offline inspection requires additional complexity in re-working any piece part. Accordingly, embodiments of the invention provide enterprises and facilities employing CNC laser cutting / welding systems with a means to overcome these limitations. Further, providing intuitive user interfaces allows the user to perform tasks directly through a touch screen interface they are viewing the work piece / piece-parts upon.

Description

CROSS REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS[0001]This application claims the benefit of priority as a divisional of U.S. Ser. No. 15 / 450,189 filed Mar. 6, 2017 entitled “Direct Client Initiated CNC Tool Setting” which itself claims priority from U.S. 62 / 303,600 filed Mar. 4, 2016 entitled “Direct Client Initiated CNC Tool Setting”, the entire contents of each being incorporated herein by reference.FIELD OF THE INVENTION[0002]This invention relates to machine tool settings and more particularly to the provisioning of tool instructions directly through a touch screen interface displaying a work piece.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0003]Numerical control (NC) is the automation of machine tools that are operated by precisely programmed commands encoded on a storage medium, as opposed to controlled manually via hand wheels or levers, or mechanically automated via cams alone. Most NC today is computer (or computerized) numerical control (CNC), in which local and / or remote computers provide the d...
