Control system PTV 886
- Based on industrial PC in WindowsXP Embedded environment
- Software of the control system combines CNC operating functions with the peration functions of cutting process that were specially developed for PTV Company
- CNC control
- Different types of coordinate system transformation (shift, rotation, …)
- Parabolic ramps to ensure smooth motion
- Pre-calculation of trajectory with speed prediction in accordance with the machine’s dynamic facilities.
- 5-axial corrections for the use of A and B rotation axis in Progres Jet and 5AX functions
- Cutting process control
- Presetting cutting conditions (jet nozzle, pump pressure, abrasives …)
- Integral material database
- Material type and thickness option on the operating system, when the system itself determines speed, or, in CAD/CAM software.
- MFC function operates cutting speed in a way that optimises divergence between upper and lower side of the cut at the required quality.
- DRC function eliminates errors caused by variable width of the cut slit when jet enters material.
- Progres Jet function uses tilting of the jet for elimination of errors caused by narrowing or lagging jet. These errors are otherwise characterised by: cut edge not vertical (due to jet narrowing) and damage to product by jet reflecting, especially in inner corners (due to jet lag)
- Guidance of the operating staff by user friendly functions for manipulation with the machine and preparations prior to cutting
