Title:
MACHINE TOOL AND MACHINE TOOL CONTROL METHOD
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2019/130659
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
The invention addresses the problem of an insufficient and unstable electrical power supply to a device to be operated such as a sensor or a wireless communication unit. A machine tool comprises a sensor that can execute a prescribed detection process, a wireless communication unit that wirelessly sends a detection signal from the sensor, an electric generator that supplies electrical power to the sensor and the wireless communication unit by generating electricity by way of vibrating at a specific frequency, and a drive unit that applies the specific frequency vibration to an installation location in which the electric generator is installed. The drive unit applies the specific frequency vibration to the installation location at a non-machining time during which a workpiece is not being machined by the machine tool.
