Processing machine i.e. drilling machine for drilling holes in workpiece, has control unit connected to thermocouple, so as to modify machining parameters based on data received from thermocouple during machining operation of workpiece

摘要

The machine (1) has a cutting tool i.e. drill (20) provided in its interior with a thermocouple. A control unit (10) is connected to the thermocouple, so as to modify machining parameters based on data received from the thermocouple during a machining operation of a workpiece (90). The control unit is capable of receiving instructions from a user to modify the machining parameters, where the machining parameters include a cutting speed of the drill, a rotation speed of the drill, and a penetration speed of the drill. An independent claim is also included for a method for machining a workpiece.
