INTRODUCTION
Numerical control :( NC)
It can be defined has form of programmable automation in which the process is controlled by
numbers, letters and symbols in NC the numbers forms a program of instructions designed
for a particular work part or job.
When the job changes the program of instruction is changed. This capability will change
program for each new job is what gives NC flexibility.
Ex: GOO XO YO ZO
Computer numerical control :( CNC)
Numerical control integrated computer control includes one or more microprocessor, mini
computers. The logic function or program the control comprises a program that is stored in
the memory.
Direct numerical control: (DNC)
It can be defined has a manufacturing system in which a number of machines are controlled
by a computer through direct connection & in real time.
Dept. of ME, CIT, Gubbi, Tumkur 1

NC motion control system:
In NC there are 3 basic types of machine control system
1. Point to Point
2. Straight cut
3. Contouring
1) Point to point
It is also sometimes called positioning system. In point to point the objective of the machine
tool control system is to the cutting to pre defined location once the tool reaches the defined
location the machining operation is performed at that position.
EX: NC drill presses.
2) Straight cut NC
Straight cut control system is capable of moving the cutting tool, parallel to one of the major
axes at controlled rate suitable for machining. It is therefore appropriate for performing
milling operation to fabricate work piece of rectangular configurations.

FUNDAMENTALS OF PART PROGRAMMING
NUMERICAL CONTROL PROCEDURE

The following are the basic steps in NC procedure
Process Planning
Part Programming
Part Program entry
Proving the part program
Production
A) PROCESS PLANNING
The part programmer will often carry out the task of process planning. Process planning is
the procedure of deciding what operations are to be done on the component, in what order,
and with what tooling and work holding facilities. Both the process planning and part
programming aspects of manufacture occur after the detail drawings of a component have
been prepared. The following procedure may be used as a guide to assist the programmer, by
describing each step required in preparing the method of production.

PROCESS PLANNING
Receive the part drawing from part drawing information, check suitability of part
to be machined against the machine capacity.
Determine a method of driving the component (chuck type, chuck size, type of
jaw) and the method of machining.
Determine the tooling required to suit the method of machining and utilize as
much as possible the tools which are permanently in the turret set upon the
machine.
Determine the order of machining and the tooling stations.
Determine planned stops for checking dimensional sizes where required by
operator
Determine cutting speeds based on
- Component material, method of driving, rigidity of component
- Tooling selected for roughing and finishing
Determine the depths of cut and feeds for roughing operations
Determine surface finish requirements, the cutter nose radius most suited for
finishing operations and determine feed rates.
Allocates tool offsets as required
Complete planning sheet
B) PART PROGRAMMING
After completing the planning sheet, draw the component showing the cutter
paths (a simple sketch is sufficient for simple components)
Select a component datum and carryout the necessary calculations at slopes and
arcs.
Prepare tooling layout sheet showing tools to be used in the program and indicate
the station number for each tool.
Indicate the ordering code for each tool and grade and type of inserts to be used.
Write the part program according to the sequence of operations.

C) PART PROGRAM ENTRY (OR) TAPE PREPARATION

The part program is prepared / punched on a 25 mm wide paper tape with 8 tracks and is fed
to MCU in order to produce a component of interest on machine tool. Other forms of input
media include, punched cards, magnetic tape, 35 mm motion picture film. The input to the
NC system can be in two ways:
1. Manual data input
2. Direct Numerical control.
1) Direct Data Input (MDI): Complete part programs are entered into CNC control unit via
the console keyboard. It is suited only for relatively simple jobs. The most common
application for MDI is the editing of part programs already resident in controllers memory.
One variation of MDI is a concept called Conversational Programming. CNC machines are
programmed via a question and answer technique whereby a resident software program asks
the operator a series of questions. In response to the operators input, and by accessing a pre-
programmed data file, the computer control can.
- Select numerical values for use within machining calculations

- Perform calculations to optimize machining conditions
- Identify standard tools and coordinates
- Calculate cutter paths and coordinates
- Generate the part program to machine the component
A typical dialogue from the machine would be as follows for the operator to identify such
things as:
- Material to be cut
- Surface roughness tolerance
- Machined shape required
- Size of the raw material blank
- Machining allowances, cut
directions
- Tools and tool detail etc.

The operator may then examine and prove the program via computer graphics simulation on
the console VDU. After this, the program is stored or punched on tape. Although there is
some sacrifice in machine utilization, actual programming time is minimal and much tedious
production engineering work is eliminated.
2) Direct Numerical Control: The process of transferring part programs into memory of a
CNC machine tool from a host computer is called Direct Numerical Control or DNC
D) PROVING PART PROGRAMS

It is safe practice to check the programmed path for any interference between the tool
and the work before using the part program for production. The proving part program is done
by:
- Visual inspection
- Single step execution
- Dry run
- Graphical simulation.
Visual Inspection: It represents the method of checking visually the program present in the
memory of the CNC machine. In this, actual program is run and the programmed movements
in all axes are to be checked along with ensuring the tool offset and cutter compensation
feature. This method represents the least form of verification and should not be relied up on
entirely.
Single Step Execution: Before auto-running the part program it should be executed in a step
mode i.e. block by block. During this execution, spindle speed and feed rate override
facilities are to be used so that axes movement can be easily monitored. This operation may
be carried out with or without mounting the component on the machine.
Dry run: A dry run consists of running the part program in auto-mode. During this, the
component is not installed on the machine table and the cutting is done in air. The purpose of
this run is to verify the programmed path of the tool under continuous operation and to check
whether adequate clearance exist between the clamping arrangement and other projections

within the set up. Feed rate override facilities are used to slow down the speed of execution
of the program.
Graphical simulation: A graphical simulation package emulates the machine tool and, using
computer graphics, plots out the machine movements on a VDU screen. Machine movement
often takes the form a cutting tool shape moving around the screen according to the
programmed movements. When the tool shape passes over a shaded representation of the
component, it erases that part of the component. The resulting shape, lest after the execution
represents the shape of the finished component. Any gross deviations from the intended tool
path can be observed and any potential interference can be highlighted.

PART PROGRAMMING GEOMETRY FOR TURNING

A. COORDINATE SYSTEM FOR A CNC LATHE.
Machining of a work piece by an NC program requires a coordinate system to be applied to

the machine tool. As all machine tools have more than one slide, it is important that each
slide is identified individually. There are two planes in which movements can take place
Longitudinal.
Transverse.
Each plane is assigned a letter and is referred to as an axis,
Axis X
Axis Z
The two axis are identified by upper case X, Z and the direction of movement along each axis
(+) or (-). The Z axis is always parallel to the main spindle of the machine. The X axis is
always parallel to the work holding surface, and always at right angles to the Z axis. The
coordinate system for turning operations is shown in figure below
B. ZERO POINTS AND REFERENCE POINTS

All CNC machine tool traverses are controlled by coordinating systems. Their accurate
position within the machine tool is established by ZERO POINTS.

MACHINE ZERO POINT (M): is specified by the manufacturer of the machine. This is
the zero point for the coordinate systems and reference points in the machine. On turning
lathes, the machine zero point is generally at the center of the spindle nose face. The main
spindle axis (center line) represents the Z axis; the face determines the X axis. The directions
of the positive X and Z axes point toward the working area as shown in figure below:
WORKPIECE ZERO POINT (W): This point determines the workpiece coordinate system
in relation to the machine zero point. The workpiece zero point is chosen by the programmer
and input into the CNC system when setting up the machine. The position of the workpiece
zero point can be freely chosen by the programmer within the workpiece envelope of the
machine. It is however advisable to place the workpiece zero point in such a manner that the
dimensions in the workpiece drawing can be conveniently converted into coordinate values
and orientation when clamping / chucking, setting up and checking, the traverse measuring
system can be effected easily.

For turned parts, the work piece zero point should be placed along the spindle axis (center
line), in line with the right hand or left hand end face of the finished contour as shown in
figure. Occasionally the work piece zero point is also called the program zero point.
REFERNCE POINT (R): This point serves for calibrating and for controlling the
measuring system of the slides and tool traverses. The position of the reference point as
shown in figure below is accurately predetermined in every traverse axis by the trip dogs and
limit switches. Therefore, the reference point coordinates always have the same , precisely
known numerical value in relation to the machine zero point. After initiating the control
system, the reference point must always be approached from all axes to calibrate the traverse
measuring system. If current slide and tool position data should be lost in the control system
as for example, through an electrical failure, the machine must again be positioned to the
reference point to re-establish the proper positioning values.

COMPUTERISED NUMERICAL CONTROL MILLING

PART PROGRAMMING FUNDAMENTALS
1. PART PROGRAMMING GEOMETRY

COORDINATE SYSTEM FOR A CNC MILL
Machining of a work piece by an NC program requires a coordinate system to be applied to

the machine tool. As all machine tools have more than one slide, it is important that each
slide is identified individually. There are three planes in which movement can take place.
Longitudinal
Vertical
Transverse
Each plane is assigned a letter and is referred to as an axis, i.e,
Axis X
Axis Y
Axis Z
The three axes are identified by upper case X, Y and Z and the direction of movement along
each axis is specified as either + or -. The Z axis is always parallel to the main spindle of
the machine. The X axis is always parallel to the work holding surface, and always at right
angles to the Z axis. The Y axis is at right angles to both Z and X axis. Figure shows the
coordinate system for milling.

B. ZERO POINTS AND REFERENCE POINTS
MACHINE ZERO POINT (M): This is specified by the manufacturer of the machine. This
is the x\zero point for the coordinate systems and reference points in the machine. The
machine zero point can be the center of the table or a point along the edge of the traverse
range as shown in figure the position of the machine zero point generally varies from
manufacture. The precise position of the machine zero point as well as the axis direction
must therefore be taken from the operating instructions provided for each individual
machine.
REFERENCE POINT (R): this point serves for calibrating and for controlling the
measuring system of the slides as tool traverses. The position of the reference point is
accurately predetermined in every traverse axis by the trip dogs and limit switches.
Therefore, the reference point coordinates always have the same, precisely known numerical
value in relation to the machine zero point. After initiating the control system, the reference
point must always be approached from all axes to calibrate the traverse measuring system. If
current slide and tool position data should be lost in the control systems, for example,
through an electrical failure, the machine must again be positioned to the reference point to
re-establish the proper positioning values.
WORKPIECE ZERO POINT (W): This point determines the work piece coordinate
system in relation to the machine zero point. The work piece zero point is chosen by the
programmer and input into the CNC system when setting up the machine. The position of the
work piece zero point can be freely chosen by the programmer within the work piece
envelope of the machine. It is however, advisable to place the work piece zero point in such a
manner that the dimensions in the work piece drawing can be conveniently converted into
coordinate values and orientation when clamping/ chucking, setting up and checking the
traverse measuring system can be affected easily. For milled parts, it is generally advisable to
use an extreme corner point as the work piece zero point. Occasionally, the work piece
zero point is called the program zero point

NC- RELATED DIMENSIONING

Dimensional information in a work piece drawing can be stated in two ways:
1. Absolute Dimension System: Data in absolute dimension system always refer to a fixed
reference point in the drawing as shown in figure A above. This point has the function of a
coordinate zero point as in figure B. The dimension lines run parallel to the coordinate axes
and always start at the reference point. Absolute dimensions are also called as Reference
dimensions.
2. Incremental Dimension System: When using incremental dimension system, every

measurement refers to a previously dimensioned position as shown in figure A below.
Incremental dimensions are distance between adjacent points. These distances are converted
into incremental coordinates by accepting the last dimension point as the coordinate origin
for the new point. This may be compared to a small coordinate system, i.e. shifted
consequently from point to point as shown in figurer B. Incremental dimensions are also
frequently called Relative dimensions or Chain dimensions.
