1Productivity

If manual parameter input is used in CNC machining, then parameter optimization can be performed, but the work efficiency is low and the optimization process is time-consuming

Engineering Contradiction:

Solution Approach 1:

The system automatically determines important optimization parameters and their adjustment directions based on performance index changes, eliminating the need for manual parameter analysis. The computer executes the optimization algorithm autonomously, allowing the system to serve itself in the parameter optimization process.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #25Self-service

Solution Approach 2:

The patent replaces manual mechanical parameter adjustment with an automated computational system. The computer calculates correlation coefficients, determines important parameters, and guides adjustment directions, substituting human manual operations with automated information processing and mathematical calculations.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #28Mechanics substitution (Replace mechanical system)

2Reliability

If all parameters are optimized simultaneously considering multiple performance indices, then comprehensive optimization is achieved, but the complexity of the optimization process increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvecomprehensive performance optimizationVSAvoidoptimization system complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent segments the complex multi-parameter optimization problem into manageable steps: first calculating correlation coefficients between parameters and performance indices, then determining important optimization parameters, and finally determining adjustment directions. This stepwise segmentation reduces the perceived complexity while maintaining comprehensive optimization.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The patent transforms the complex optimization problem into parameter calculations (correlation coefficients, importance scores, adjustment directions) that can be processed computationally. By changing the representation of the optimization problem into mathematical parameters, the system manages complexity through structured data processing.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes

3Adaptability or versatility

If manual parameter adjustment is performed when environmental conditions change, then adaptability is maintained, but the response time is slow and efficiency is reduced

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveadaptation to environmental changesVSAvoidresponse speed to environmental changes
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSSpeed

Solution Approach 1:

The patent implements a feedback mechanism where performance index changes are continuously monitored, and these changes feed back into the parameter determination process. When environmental conditions change and performance indices shift, the system automatically recalculates and adjusts parameters, creating a closed-loop adaptive system that responds quickly to changes.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #23Feedback

Solution Approach 2:

The optimization system is designed to be dynamic rather than static. The important parameters and adjustment directions are not fixed but are recalculated based on current performance index values. This dynamic recalculation allows the system to adapt rapidly to changing environmental conditions without manual intervention.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics
