International Classification:

B24C 1/04
G05B 19/4097

Abstract:

Systems and methods for providing real-time modification of cutting process programs using feedback from one or more sensors which measure one or more operational parameters of a cutting process and/or cutting apparatus. The sensor readings may be used to provide real-time modification of a motion program after such motion program has been provided to a motion controller. Examples of such operational parameters may include waterjet pump supply pressure, the abrasive mass flow rate, the force of the waterjet on the target piece, etc. The systems and methods discussed herein also utilize a cutting algorithm or program to calculate actual cut quality based on one or more sensor inputs, and to generate warnings or system shut-downs accordingly. The systems and methods discussed herein also utilize inspection devices to inspect coupons or first articles, and use the inspection data to autonomously modify motion programs and/or cutting process models without user intervention.

G06F 9/44

Abstract:

The various embodiments described herein include methods, systems and/or devices used to visualize data. In one aspect, a method is performed by a computing system having one or more processors and memory. The method includes (1) receiving a request from a user to visualize data, the data stored in a graph dataflow processing system, and (2) in response to the request, invoking an interactive graphical user interface (GUI) for display to the user, the GUI including a first set of visualization data corresponding to a first subset of the data.
