Realization of the Postprocessor of Intelligent Turning-Milling Combined Machining Cell Based on UG NX

Abstract:

The post processor of the flexible machining cell (FMC) composed by turn-mill machining centre and transport robot, which realizes some special functions such as automatic loading and unloading, turning-milling combined processing, keeping account of the man hour and so on, is developed by NX/Post Builder. The post processor is verified by the results of the case study using a special-shaped shaft. The development method discussed in this paper beneficial for producing an advantage of FMC to improve machining efficiency can also be used for reference to realize the postprocessor of other kinds of combined machine tools or machining cells.
