Programming Software

Modern Machine Shop, April, 2001 by Elizabeth M. Gruber

The company has developed software that does not require the operator to know how to machine the part or how to program the machine. The Machine Control program-creating software with artificial intelligence will create a CNC program based on what part the machine is to make and with what material. The computer already is loaded with a database of cutting tools and machine data from which it constructs an appropriate set of G codes.

There is also a formula that calculates the number of cuts considering the type of tool and the condition of the machine.
