This whole project deals with the CAD/CAM systems, what are these systems what they do, how they work. CAD/CAM systems are the introduction of computers in industry. Computers achieved to build a link between the Design functions and the Manufacturing functions. CNC machines are the beginnings of CAM, fully programmable machines which can perform machining or other metal processing virtually unattended. CAD systems enable the designer to visualize the design better, perform engineering calculations like finite element analysis which were not practical,
time consuming and inaccurate in the past.
The post processor programmed for the EMCO COMPACT 5 CNC LATHE is small CAD/CAM system. It can perform automatically part programming, transfer the part program to the CNC through communications cables and perform mass properties calculations. It also can provide 3D modeling and finish presentation of the part that is to be machined.
The post processor programmed was achieved by customization of AutoCAD and can handle turning, facing, tapering and finishing cut.
The main conclusion is that the post processor developed is quite simple, versatile, fast and user friendly. It solved the problem of performing part programming for the parts that are to be machined on the CNC Lathe and reduced the time of doing this to practically nothing.
