Manufacturing of a logotype on NC machine in autodesk environment

Abstract

Nowadays, automation of manufacturing advertising frameworks gains particular relevance. Currently, NC machines are widely used at enterprises in various production branches, which requires a specialist that could exploit them with the highest efficiency. This design is aimed at the developing a technological solution to the problem of automation of manufacturing processes involving NC machines on the example of manufacturing a logotype for the Department of Applied Mechanics at National aerospace university “KhAI”. The main parts of the logo are: a gear wheel, a gripper, a sub gripper, a hinge joint (2), text, a backside, an accessory part, a bearing. The department logotype was designed in Solid Works environment. The designed patterns of the logo were adopted for the Autodesk environment by saving files in DFX format. This makes it possible to write a part processing program. The logo processing technology is framed considering the type of manufacturing procedure and with the use of high-yield equipment. Mechanical processing is fixed, the path of the tool is demonstrated and the control program for milling operations is received. In case the logotype is manufactured as an exterior decorative element, while designing it is necessary to consider the model of the cutting tool and the cutting depth in order to visually specify some fragments of the parts and their mutual bracing. The design of the framework can be considered as a sample of automation of manufacturing outdoor advertisement by means of a modern machine – tool with NC operation system.
