FIELD: machine engineering, namely equipment for automobile service centers, possibly for straightening discs of automobile wheels even in very small shops for maintenance works.
SUBSTANCE: all actuating mechanism are connected during operation with pickups, for example for testing geometry size of wheel disc. Said pickups are connected with machine tool control apparatus. Hydraulic cylinders are used for moving working table and carriages instead of manual motion of them. Control apparatus on base of data received from pickups performs in automatic mode technological process of straightening discs according to desired program set by operator of machine tool. In order to realize it, control apparatus is provided with industrial computer connected with interface device for controlling actuating mechanisms. Control apparatus of machine tool includes in addition program for automatically mounting wheel disc into working zone of machine tool for further straightening it and removing wheel disc out of machine tool after termination of straightening process. Machine tool includes in addition pickups for preliminarily detecting geometry size of wheel disc before straightening process and for further writing data related to geometry size of wheel disc in memory of control apparatus.
EFFECT: enhanced efficiency.
