Motion Test Control Host for Automated Coordinate Validation
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Traditional test mechanisms for mechanical processing tools require manual validation of motion tests, which are time-consuming and labor-intensive, especially when dealing with tools that use both mechanical and working coordinates, and can be affected by multiple test stages and interdependencies between test programs.
Innovation Solution
A method and control host system that generates a template file from a first motion test program, allowing for automated comparison with a second motion test program, generating a warning message if control abnormalities are detected, thereby improving the efficiency of motion testing.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If manual validation is used for motion tests, then comprehensive cross-validation of coordinates and compensation values can be performed, but the testing process becomes time-consuming and labor-intensive
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies preliminary action by pre-generating template files that contain expected coordinate information and compensation values before actual motion tests are executed. These template files serve as reference standards that enable automated comparison during testing, eliminating the need for manual cross-validation of mechanical coordinates, working coordinates, tool compensation values, and coordinate system compensation values during each test run.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent uses copying by creating template files that replicate the expected test results and coordinate transformations. These template files are copied references that can be automatically compared against actual test outputs, replacing manual validation processes while maintaining comprehensive checking of all coordinate systems and compensation values.
2Reliability
If multiple test programs with multiple stages are used to cover all motion scenarios, then thorough testing is achieved, but the complexity of managing and validating interdependencies between programs increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies universality by designing a template file system that serves multiple functions across different test programs and stages. A single template file can be used to validate multiple test programs, and the same comparison mechanism works for all coordinate systems and compensation values, reducing the complexity of managing interdependencies between test programs.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent segments the test validation process into separate template files for different coordinate systems and compensation values. Each template file handles specific aspects of the motion test, allowing independent management and validation of mechanical coordinates, working coordinates, tool compensation, and coordinate system compensation without requiring complex inter-program validation.
3Measurement precision
If developers perform comprehensive validation of coordinate transformations and compensation values, then control accuracy is ensured, but considerable manpower is required
Solution Approach 1:
The patent implements self-service by enabling the system to automatically generate template files and perform comparisons without developer intervention. The automated system validates coordinate transformations and compensation values by comparing actual test results against pre-generated template expectations, ensuring measurement precision while eliminating manual validation efforts.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent replaces manual mechanical validation processes with automated computational comparison. Instead of developers manually checking coordinate transformations and compensation values, the system uses automated processing to compare template file data with actual test results, maintaining high measurement precision while dramatically improving development productivity.

AI summary
A method for a motion test and a control host of a movable machinery are provided. The method includes: loading a first motion test program; generating, according to the first motion test program, a template file recording first coordinate information indicated by the first motion test program for the movable machinery to perform a physical motion; loading a second motion test program; reading the template file according to program information of the second motion test program and comparing second coordinate information indicated by the second motion test program for the movable machinery to perform the physical motion with the first coordinate information; and generating, according to a comparison result, a warning message reflecting that a control for the movable machinery by the second motion test program may be abnormal.
