POST-PROCESSOR DEVELOPMENT SUPPORT SYSTEM AND CAM SYSTEM USING THE SAME

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a post-processor development support system capable of easily developing a post-processor for converting CL (Cutter Location) data into NC (Numerical Control) data. SOLUTION: The post-processor development support system comprising a database 17 and acquiring part 31 and 32 is used. The database 17 divides and stores a plurality of programs for composition which constitute a part dependent on an NC machine tool in the host-processor 12 for converting CL data into NC data in each of a plurality of items. The acquiring parts 31 and 32 refer to the database 17 on the basis of a user's input and selects one program for composition in each of the plurality of items from the plurality of programs for composition. The post-processor 12 converts CL data into NC data on the basis of the selected program for composition. COPYRIGHT: (C)2008,JPO&INPIT
