Research and exploitation of CNC laser manufacturing online monitoring system based on OpenGL

CNC manufacturing online monitoring technology is a significant method to improve the processing quality and achieve an important part of intelligent processing. Based on OpenGL 3D graphics technology, a Computer Numerical Control (CNC ) Laser Manufacturing 3D model is established; based on the model and the powerful ability of OpenGL, a CNC manufacturing on-line monitoring system is developed so as to achieve the ability of CNC remote real-time online monitoring in different working locations. Remote real-time online monitoring of different position of the CNC is realized. The online monitoring scope of the CNC is enlarged, with more flexibility to meet the demands of practical application, meanwhile the cost of hardware investment is greatly reduced.
