Configuring the programming and control systems for a mini 3-axis CNC machine tool on the Raspberry PI platform

U radu je pokazano konfigurisanje sistema za programiranje i upravljanje jedne realizovane koncepcije troosne mini CNC mašine alatke čije je upravljanje zasnovano na Raspberry PI platformi koristeći Machinekit upravljački softver. Za potrebe verifikacije sistema programiranja konfigurisana je i virtuelna mini CNC mašina alatka, u sistemu za programiranje, u različitim pogodnim okruženjima. Verifikacija programiranja je ostvarena na konfigurisanoj virtuelnoj mašini koja radi na osnovu zadatog programa i iscrtava programiranu putanju alata. U radu je predstavljeno konfigurisanje i implementacija upravljanja na Raspberry PI platformi za mini CNC mašinu alatku, čija je verifikacija realizovana probnim radom mini CNC mašine alatke.In this paper, a system configuration for programming and control of a realised conception of a Raspberry PI based 3-axes mini CNC machine tool utilising Machinekit is shown. For the verification of the CNC programs, virtual mini CNC machine tool was configured within the simulation system in various conforming environments. Programming verification was done by applying for an adequate numerical control program on the preconfigured virtual machine and observing the program execution. This work presents configuration and implementation of a control system for mini CNC machine tool applied on RaspberryPi3 platform, where the implementation verification was performed through experimental trials of a real mini CNC machine tool
