PROCESO PARA LA MANUFACTURA Y VERIFICACIÓN GEOMÉTRICA DE ELEMENTOS ESTRUCTURALES PARA MÁQUINAS–HERRAMIENTA DE APLICACIÓN ESPECÍFICA

Abstract

The demand for machine tools in the country by the manufacture industry is at a continuous growth, nevertheless the national machine-tool industry is incapable of fulfill the demand of new machinery, with that in mind nowadays there are several works in progress at various research and education institutes nationwide for the optimization and improvement of conventional and reconfigurable machine-tools. The new tendencies in manufacture systems lead towards the implementation of flexible systems capable of adapting to the demands of an ever changing market with cost effective solutions, an option is the use of general propose CNC machinery, which provide great flexibility but are not always return investment effective on short term. This originates the implementation of flexible or reconfigurable manufacturing systems were the initial investment is far smaller. It is propose the development of a manufacture and verification process for structural elements for machine-tools, taking into consideration the most important concepts for reconfigurable machine tools design, as the standards employed to their acceptance and maintenance
