Machine tool having a rotary table |
摘要 |
A machine tool includes a clamping mechanism for clamping/unclamping rotation of a rotary table. A load is measured when an unclamping command is output and then the rotary table is rotated after a set time set in the timer passes, and the set time of the timer is changed in response to a magnitude of the measured load. In this way, it is possible to prevent the clamping mechanism from being damaged due to a subsequent command given before unclamping ends, and extend a life span of a component. |

1. A machine tool comprising:
a rotary table for attaching a workpiece; a motor for driving the rotary table; a clamping mechanism for clamping rotation of the rotary table; and a timer for setting a time taken until a subsequent command is made available after an unclamping command for releasing a clamping operation of the clamping mechanism to a set time, wherein the machine tool includes a load measurement unit for measuring a load of an output shaft of the motor, a reference load storage unit for storing a reference load of the rotary table in advance, a provisional load storage unit for measuring and storing, as a provisional load, a load obtained when an unclamping command of the rotary table is output and the rotary table is rotated after the set time set in the timer passes, a load comparison unit for comparing the provisional load stored in the provisional load storage unit with the reference load stored in the reference load storage unit, and a timer changing unit for changing the set time of the timer when the provisional load exceeds the reference load as a result of comparison of the load comparison unit. |
