Abstract
A tailstock control device includes a tailstock parameter setting unit that receives, in advance, setting of tailstock acceleration time ta, tailstock movement velocity V, drive torque measuring period t, and number n of drive torque measurements; a calculating unit that calculates acceleration zone distance La from the acceleration time ta and the movement velocity V; a calculating unit that calculates constant velocity zone distance Lb from the movement velocity V, the measuring period t, and the number n of measurements; a drive torque detecting unit that detects servo motor drive torque; and a control unit that sets La+Lb as drive torque measuring distance Lt and calculates servo motor drive torque limit value τc from drive torque T detected by the drive torque detecting unit when the tailstock is moved over La+Lb and also from a servo motor torque command value τa required for supporting a workpiece.
