Abstract

The purpose of this study is the development of CAM system which can machine and measure any shape by CNC lathe. The overall goal of the CAM system is to achieve the CNC lathe machining, from roughing through to final measuring, The hardware of the system comprises PC, CNC lathe and measuring tools. There are three steps in the CNC lathe machining and measuring, (1) geometric modeling by the shape patterns, (2) NC commands generation by the tool path compensated for tool nose radius, (3) machining and workpiece measuring on the lathe. It is developed a software package, with which we can conduct a micro CAM system in the PC without economical burden.
