The paper proposes a programming methodology for advanced manufacturing based on STEP-NC, a compliant to multi-axis CNC woodworking machining center. The equivalent virtual machine in the CAD/CAM, STEP-NC environment, is developed as a part of a programming system for considered CNC woodworking machining center. STEP-NC aims to provide a digital th...

Sustainability, one of the most important aspects of every production plant, can be enhanced through retrofitting. In this paper, retrofitting of two furnaces for metal heat treatment, namely vacuum furnace and conveyor belt furnace with protective atmosphere, are presented. The goal of the revitalization of the furnaces is modernization through th...

Safe and efficient training using flight simulation training devices (FSTD) is one of the fundamental components of training in the commercial, military, and general aviation. When compared with the live training, the most significant benefits of ground trainers include improved safety and the reduced cost of a pilot training process. Flight simula...

This paper presents an application of an open architecture control system implemented on a multi-axis wood computer numerical control milling machining center, as a digital twin control. The development of the digital twin control system was motivated by research and educational requirements, especially in the field of configuring a new control sys...
