摘要： An automatic scanning apparatus and method for detecting the presence of one or more objects in an image field under investigation or inspection. Electro-optical scanning means, such as a television camera, is employed to scan an image field and generate output electrical signals which vary in accordance with variations in the optical characteristics of the matter and objects in the image field scanned. Such signals are computer processed and analyzed to generate coded electrical signals which define optical characteristics of portion of the image field scanned, such as objects or the images of objects scanned, their shape, color of a combination of color and shape. Electronic means is provided to generate further coded electrical signals which indicate the presence of one or more objects in the image field scanned and may be used to effect intelligent indications thereof, to control one or more devices such as a motor or motors, and/or to provide information for computational purposes to be processed and utilized by a computer. In one form, that shape of an object or objects is detected and coded signals generated are employed to effect a comparison of such shape with information relating to the shapes of known objects to identify the object or objects scanned. In another form, the color or surface characteristics of an object is detected and resulting signals indicative thereof are compared with informatin derived from a memory to identify either the object or its color or surface characteristics. In a third form both shape and color are detected and compared with recorded information for identification purposes.

摘要： In a remaining bar material machining method, a plurality of works are taken from a continuous bar material on an NC lathe, and the remaining portion left at the end of the bar material is machined effectively. In the lathe in which both first and second headstocks are axially movable along the bed, the continuous bar material can be continuously machined with efficiency. At that time, to utilize the remaining portion left at the end of the bar material effectively without discarding it, this remaining bar material is transferred to the second headstock. An NC controller includes a main machining program and a remaining bar material machining program; when the remaining bar material has been transferred to the second headstock, the remaining bar material machining program is executed instead of the main machining program having hitherto been executed. During machining the remaining bar material on the second headstock, the first headstock is waiting in readiness for the machining of the next bar material.

摘要： An adaptive control apparatus is provided with a load detector for detecting a load which acts on a cutting tool during a machining operation of a workpiece and plural storage areas for one cutting tool which respectively store plural data groups of load values which are sampled during respective model machining operations. In an adaptive control machining operation, a microprocessor selects one of the plural storage areas when receiving tool code data that a numerical controller reads out in accordance with a numerical control program. In the adaptive control machining operation controlled by the numerical controller in accordance with the numerical control program, the microprocessor modulates the feed rate override of the numerical controller so that the feed rate of the cutting tool is varied to make the actual machining load detected during the adaptive control machining operation follow the sampled load values which are successively read out from the selected one of the storage areas.
