STOPPING A PRODUCTION MACHINE ON A COLLISION-FREE PATH

A numerical controller uses specifications to control position-controlled axes of a production machine and determines a current group of position setpoint values and groups of position setpoint values expected for a forecast horizon. The numerical controller checks for the risk of a collision betwee...

Zusammenfassung:A numerical controller uses specifications to control position-controlled axes of a production machine and determines a current group of position setpoint values and groups of position setpoint values expected for a forecast horizon. The numerical controller checks for the risk of a collision between at least one element moved by the position-controlled axes and at least one other element. The numerical controller carries out the same check for the expected groups. If there is no risk of collision, it stores the expected groups in a braking path memory and uses the current group. If there is the risk of a collision, it changes the axes along a path to a standstill defined by the braking path memory and braking is effected along a path which has been previously checked for the risk of a collision and for which no risk of a collision has been detected.
