Parallel machine tools

Abstract

"The parallel machine tool that has been developed allows for two tools to simultaneously be engaged in either a turning or milling operation, while the open architecture software platform allows for the implementation and testing of any type of control algorithm. In addition to the machine's ability to perform parallel operations, the modular nature of the mechanical parts and the software allow for components to be removed such that the equipment is able to operate as a three axis CNC machine tool"--Abstract, page iii.
