Abstract

In the article, a digital machining environment of CNC lathe is established. On the basis of the idea of Constructive Solid Geometry method, the system consists of the blank display model, the tool and fixture model, CNC machining program editing model and machining simulation model. By making use of VC++ and OpenGL graphics technology the program is done for machine tool motion simulation and cutting simulation. It is an effective accessory tool in the application of CNC lathe to digital production.
