MULTIPROCESSOR NUMERICAL CONTROL SYSTEM

摘要

MULTIPROCESSOR NUMERICAL CONTROL SYSTEM A numerical control system includes a main processor which performs such functions as interpolation and outputting of motion command signals to the servomechanisms on a machine tool. A separate programmable interface processor connects to the main processor bus structure and it operates as a programmable controller to control the discrete digital I/O devices associated with the machine tool. A third processor couples through a serial data link with the main processor and it operates to service peripheral I/O devices associated with the front control panel on the numerical control system.
