Diseño y simulación de un Router CNC para corte por plasma a partir de archivos DXF 2D

Abstract

This text describes a conceptual detailed design of the different components being part of a three axes CNC plasma cutting machine where the equipment´s specifications were established by applying the methodology of development based on the QFD quality functions. Likewise, the selection of electronic components is presented by this type of machine based on the characteristics determined in the mechanical design. It established a wiring diagram that was used to perform a simulation of the engine’s control for each axis from the communication processing software codes G and the control board. Meanwhile, a CAM software to generate cutting instructions was also developed, in consequence they used the Matlab software platform programmer. This application, called "Plasma CNC V1.0" creates G codes from 2D DXF files and these formats can be saved to be opened by any CNC post processor
