Abstract

Advance avoidance of machine collision by means of computer simulation is now common in NC machining. However, human errors from the tool shape mounted in the machine tool main shaft not matching the simulation data and the actual tool have become a problem. Therefore, in this research, we have developed a high-speed method of comparing the shape of a tool mounted on a machine tool main shaft and an estimated shape in a simulation. This is done by capturing an image of the tool with a camera and estimating the tool shape from multiple images.
