Ergonomic Design of Human-CNC Machine Interface
نویسنده
چکیده
Ever since the industrial revolution opened the vistas of a new age, the process of industrialization has been at the core of the economic development of all countries. In a simple sense, industrialization means replacement of human labor by machinery to manufacture goods. In this way it induces a shift from home (craft) to factory based production. In a more rational sense, it is a process whereby the share of industry in general and manufacturing in particular, in total economic activities increases.

Needs of ergonomic design at control units in production industries.
During the last decades, an increasing use of innovative technologies in manufacturing areas was monitored. A huge amount of physical workload was replaced by the change from conventional machine tools to computer-controlled units. CNC systems spread in current production processes. Because of this, machine operators today mostly have an observational function. This caused increasing of static ...
متن کاملCurrent Work in the Human-Machine Interface for Ergonomic Intervention with Exoskeletons
This literature review of exoskeleton design provides a brief history of exoskeleton development, discusses current research of exoskeletons with respect to the innate human-machine interface, and the incorporation of exoskeletons for ergonomic intervention, and offers a review of needed future work. Development of assistive exoskeletons began in the 1960’s but older designs lacked design for h...
متن کاملSoftware Models for Standardizing the Human-Machine Interface Connection to a Machine Controller
In manufacturing, the Human Machine Interface (HMI) handles the human interaction with a machine controller. Currently, in computer numerically controlled (CNC) machines, most HMIs are tied to a CNC using a proprietary connection that leads to non-reusable, vendor-specific, application software resulting in costlier integration. With a standard HMI-Controller Application Programming Interface (...
متن کاملThe « Corpus Ergonomicus »: a Comprehensive and Unique Source for Human-machine Interface
The "Corpus Ergonomicus" consists of a multi-purpose design guide containing ergonomic rules (or guidelines) that are considered useful to improve human-machine interaction. 3,700 ergonomic rules have been extracted from 938 bibliographic references, gathered, translated, reformulated and organised according to a general ergonomic rule model. Twenty seven problems encountered when applying ergo...
متن کاملAn Integrated Design for a CNC Machine
Computer Numerical Control (CNC) is a technology that converts coded instructions and numerical data into sequential actions that describe the motion of machine axes or the behavior of an end effector. Nowadays, CNC technology has been introduced to different stages of production, such as rapid prototyping, machining and finishing processes, testing, packaging, and warehousing. The main objecti...
