Contour text technique based on AutoCAD for controlling 2-axis actuators

This paper presents a research and development of 2-axis actuators which are controlled by using AutoCAD graphic and text database in text file being standard of ASCII Drawing Interchange File (DXF). The graphic data have a position data that can control actuators instantaneously. In text data, contour text technique is improved to get the text data having the position which can apply to control the actuators by applying function of AutoCAD. The database is analyzed for optimizing the path to reduce the time of movement, saving energy in order to reduce budget in manufacturing. Dual modulus pre-scaling is used to translate analyzed data for controlling 2-axis actuators to move any number of prototypes (such as circle, square and text) accurately.
