CNC2CNC AUTOMATIC TRANSLATION IN CIM BASED ORGANIZATIONS FOR STEEL PROFILE PROCESSING

Abstract

When factory owners buy new equipment, especially in the case of CNC Machines, the programing language for the new machine is not similar with those for the elder equipment. This induces a time period necessary for training for the new programming language and for translating the programs form the archives in order to prepare the status of “ready to use” for the new equipment. It is the moment when archive translation under CNC2CNC specifications reveals many competitive advantages.
