The Automatic Configuration Method of Modular Structures Composing Multi-Axis Heads

The important characteristic of modern technological engineering is the systemic approach through unification and typification of problems related to production processes and equipment. The multi-criterial analysis of solutions and connections is difficult under the conditions in which the accelerated generalization of technological innovation determines sometimes an exaggerated diversification of constructive variants. Our researches, presented in this paper, provide original solutions for the development and organisation of modular structures in a computerized data base, the elaboration and use of a new method to automatically configure and reconfigure them using a computer programme. In this way we obtained the optimal variant to construct and operate completely modularized adjustable multi-spindle ends.
