A REVIEW AND ANALYSIS OF THE HISTORICAL DEVELOPMENT OF MACHINE TOOLS INTO COMPLEX INTELLIGENT MECHATRONIC SYSTEMS
Journal Title: Journal of Machine Engineering - Year 2018, Vol 18, Issue 1
Abstract
This paper presents an analytical review of the development of machine tools (MT) into complex mechatronic systems. The basic periods, inventions and achievements in their historical development are marked which are represented in seven stages depending on the most essential changes for each period. Other fundamental and important discoveries and inventions are given along with the immediate achievements and changes which have affected the development of MT. A diagram of the changes in the relationship between the MT mechanical, electronic and software components is presented depending on the rate of development of the different stages as well as an opinion is shared on the conceptual schema of the environment of a future intelligent MT.
