Abstract

This paper presents methods that can be widely and easily applied to data transformation process of machining robots. A reverse post processor is first introduced to regenerate original CLS (Cutter Location Sourse) data from post-processed NC (Numerical Control) data including variable axes codes. Then, a promising forward post processor is proposed to produce FANUC robot programs called LS data from CLS data. The proposed reverse and forward post processors allow an industrial machining robot to work based on the NC data that have been used for, e.g., a five axis NC machine tool with a tilting head.
