Abstract

To realize application of the STandard for the Exchange of Product model data-compliant Numerical Control data interface (STEP-NC) in NC system, an STEP-NC code translator was developed. Firstly, working principles of the STEP-NC code translator was introduced. According to inner logical relationship, the code translator was composed of six functional modules. Function and realizing method for each module was expatiated. Three key technologies of the STEP-NC code translator including design of class library, reading method of parameters in toolpath planning and transition of STEP-NC coordinate system were discussed in detail. Finally, combined with a STEP-NC program example, the whole toolpath of the program was planned by the proposed STEP-NC code translator. A cutting simulation was conducted to the toolpath and the workpiece model by STEP-NC milling machining simulation system. Result demonstrated feasibility of the developed STEP-NC code translator.
