Abstract
The World Wide Web (WWW) can provide machining systems with remote monitoring capabilities through highly graphical user interfaces. As part of a feasibility study, an experimental system to check the availability of the current WWW protocols and languages for on-line machining data transfer and representation was developed. The system consists of a machine tool with PC-based NC, sensors, servers and terminal clients. The primary limitations of standard WWW techniques applied to the dynamic monitoring were found. A functionally distributed monitoring architecture to overcome these disadvantages is proposed. The present approach also provides recommendations for reconstructing complex user interfaces and virtual reality on the client side by utilizing a few of the machine tool parameters.
