Abstract :
This paper presents an open architecture controller (OAC) for machining systems and describes the OAC testbed at the University of Michigan. Because our OAC is designed for fully open systems, it does not depend on any specific hardware or software components. This openness includes software reusability which enables integration of a wide range of monitoring and control features. In addition to openness, our OAC system provides guaranteed real-time performance, an important requirement for advanced manufacturing
