The present invention relates to a control system for controlling operation of a numerically controlled machine tool (), the system comprising a back-end control device () and a front-end control device () communicably connected to the back-end control device (). The back-end control device () comprises a numerical controller (), a programmable logic controller (), a first communication interface () being communicably connected to the numerical controller () and the programmable logic controller (), and an interface server module () of a second communication interface () being communicably connected to the first communication interface (). The front-end control device () comprises an interface client module () of the second communication interface () being adapted to communicably connect to the interface server module (), second processing means () for executing a second operating system (), a basic module application (), and a plurality of control applications (-), the basic module application () being for accessing data in the numerical controller () and the programmable logic controller () via the one or more interface client modules (), the interface server module () and the first communication interface (), a display unit () for displaying one or more control screens to a user, an input unit () for receiving control input operations from the user, and a first human-machine interface () being communicably connected to the display unit () and the input unit (), and including a first graphical user interface () for controlling the one or more control screens displayed on the display unit () and for processing control input operations of the user.

Control system for controlling operation of a numerically controlled machine tool, and back-end and front-end control devices for use in such system

A system for control of a numerically controlled machine tool by a user, including an operator console being operable by the user and a mobile data carrier, and to an operator console and a mobile data carrier for use in such system. The operator console has a receiving slot for receiving the mobile data carrier and a first communication interface adapted to be communicably connected to a second communication interface of the mobile data carrier, wherein the second communication interface includes a female connector socket and the first communication interface includes a male connector plug provided at an inner end face portion of the receiving slot for being plugged into the female connector socket of the mobile data carrier when the mobile data carrier is received in the receiving slot.

Control system, operator console and mobile data carrier for a machine tool

An apparatus for use with a machine tool, including an operating panel via which the machine tool can be controlled by an user and a supporting arm holding the operating panel, which can be mounted on the machine tool by means of a hinge in such a way that the supporting arm holding the operating panel can be pivoted relatively to the machine tool about a vertical axis of the hinge, wherein the apparatus is provided with at least one damping element and/or which dampens an impact of the apparatus which occurs, because of a collision between the apparatus and the machine tool, when the supporting arm is pivoted with respect to the machine tool about a vertical axis.

Device for holding the control console of a machine tool

Apparatus for monitoring and providing visual representations of the operating conditions of machine tool parameters, in particular for program-controlled turning, milling, and drilling machines, which have a machining unit displaceable in a plurality of coordinate axes, in which a work spindle for exchangeable receiving a machining tool and an electric motor for driving the work spindle are mounted. The machine tool includes a control unit and means for monitoring the operating state of the machine tool. The monitoring apparatus has at least one sensor for detecting at least one operating parameter of the machine tool. An evaluating unit is connected to both the sensor and the control unit and processes the measurement values detected by the sensor. An optical display is provided in the direct viewing range of the operator, which viewing range includes the machine operating spindle, tool holder, tool, and workplace. The optical display can display a normal, a critical, and a dangerous operating state of the machine tool in accordance with the data from the evaluating unit.

Apparatus for monitoring and providing visual representations of the operating conditions of machine tool parameters

A profile element for forming a frame element for a cabin wall of a numerically controlled machine tool is disclosed. A cross-section of the profile element has at least one receiving section for receiving a first securing element, at least one arch-shaped section, and at least one connecting section for connecting the frame element to the cabin wall of the machine tool. The arch-shaped section is arranged between the receiving section and the connecting section.

Profile element, frame element and cabin wall section of a numerically controlled machine tool

A control console of a numerically controlled machine tool having a housing, a screen, at least one circuit board that has electrical components, and a cooling device that includes a cooling channel, through which a fluid can be conducted, the cooling channel extending within the housing between at least two openings in the housing.

Control console for a numerically controlled machine tool

A handle can be fastened to a main body by way of screws and includes a main profiled part having two receiving portions and at least two slot nuts, which each have a threaded hole for receiving one of the screws. One slot nut each is inserted in a receiving portion and can be clamped in the receiving portion when a screw, which passes through the main body, is screwed into the threaded hole. The clamping of the slot nuts generates tensile stresses which pull the main profiled part in the direction of the surface of the main body and thus secure the main profiled part to the main body.

Handle

The invention relates to a machine toolcomprising a plurality of operation functions and a selection device-for selecting one or more operation functions by a user. The machine toolreceives data from a mobile data carriervia a reception device, on the basis of which it may be determined which operation functions may be performed by the user. In this process, an access control devicegrants the user access to only those selected operation functions he or she is authorized to perform.

Control panel for machine tools

Machine tool

A console for a machine tool comprising a housing mounted on a pivotable supporting arm, a keypad arranged in the housing, and an upper display unit including a screen. The housing is formed with a lower housing shell including the keypad, and a separate upper housing part including the upper display unit. The lower housing shell and the upper housing part are formed so as to be separately pivotable and lockable in preferred operating positions.

Console for a machine tool

A supporting structure for the console of a machine tool comprising a bending-resistant supporting beam pivotably mounted on the base of the machine tool with its machine-side end and carrying a console comprising a keyboard and a display unit on the free end of its portion directed transversely upward.

Supporting structure for the console of a machine tool

A machine tool having a protective cabinet and an illumination system comprising at least one discharge lamp installed in the interior space of the protective cabinet. The discharge lamp is formed as a flat lamp radiating over a large area with a uniform luminous intensity and disposed on a cabinet wall in order to obtain an enhanced illumination of the entire workspace of the machine as well as of the interior space of the protective cabinet.
