The document provides information on numerical control (NC) and computer numerical control (CNC) machines. It discusses the historical development of NC machines and how they have evolved from mechanized production equipment using cams and stops to programmable automation using NC, PLC and robotics. It then describes the major components, motion control, classifications and accuracy/repeatability of modern NC machines. The document also covers point-to-point and continuous path control, interpolation methods, programming codes and tool compensation techniques for NC machines.
Modern precision manufacturing demands extreme dimensional accuracy and surface finish.Such performance is very difficult to achieve manually, if not impossible, even with expert operators. In cases where it is possible, it takes much higher time due to the need for frequent dimensional measurement to prevent overcutting. It is thus obvious that automated motion control would replace manual “handwheel” control in modern manufacturing. Development of computer numerically controlled (CNC) machines has also made possible the automation of the machining processes with flexibility to handle production of small to medium batch of parts. In the 1940s when the U.S. Air Force perceived the need to manufacture complex parts for highspeed aircraft. This led to the development of computer-based automatic machine tool controls also known as the Numerical Control (NC) systems. Commercial production of NC machine tools started around the fifties and sixties around the world. Note that at this time the microprocessor has not yet been invented. Initially, the CNC technology was applied on lathes, milling machines, etc. which could perform a single type of metal cutting operation. Later, attempt was made to handle a variety of workpieces that may require several different types machining operations and to finish them in a single set-up. Thus CNC machining Centres capable of performing multiple operations were developed. To start with, CNC machining centres were developed for machining prismatic components combining operations like milling, drilling, boring and tapping. Gradually machines for manufacturing cylindrical components, called turning centers were developed.
Automatically controlling a machine tool based on a set of pre-programmed machining and movement instructions is known as numerical control, or NC.In a typical NC system the motion and machining instructions and the related numerical data, together called a part program, used to be written on a punched tape. The part program is arranged in the form of blocks of information, each related to a particular operation in a sequence
of operations needed for producing a mechanical component. The punched tape used to be read one block at a time. Each block contained, in a particular syntax, information needed for processing a particular machining instruction such as, the segment length, its cutting speed, feed, etc. These pieces of information were related to the final dimensions of the workpiece (length, width, and radii of circles) and the contour forms (linear, circular, or other) as per the drawing. Based on these dimensions, motion commands were given separately for each axis of motion. Other instructions and related machining parameters, such as cutting speed, feed rate, as well as auxiliary functions related to coolant flow, spindle speed, part clamping, are also provided in part programs depending on manufacturing specifications such as tolerance and surface finish. Punched tapes are mostly obsolete.

CNC programming (Computer Numerical Control Programming) is utilized by manufacturers to create program instructions for computers to control a machine tool. CNC is highly involved in the manufacturing process and improves automation as well as flexibility.
Computer Numerical Control (CNC) Machining is the process through which computers control machine-based processes in manufacturing. The kinds of machines controlled include lathes, mills, routers and grinders – all used for manufacturing of metal and plastic products.

NC ACCURACY AND REPEATABILITY
• Accuracy = control instrumentation resolution
and hardware accuracy.
• Control resolution: the minimum length
distinguishable by the control unit (BLU).
• Hardware inaccuracies are caused by physical
machine errors.
12. IE550
HARDWARE INACCURACIES
Component tolerances:
inaccuracies in the machine elements, machine-
tool assembly errors, spindle runout, and
leadscrew backlash.
Machine operation:
Tool deflection (a function of the cutting force),
produces dimensional error and chatter marks on
the finished part.
Thermal error:
heat generated by the motor operation, cutting
process, friction on the ways and bearings, etc.
Use cutting fluids, locating drive motors away
from the center of a machine, and reducing friction
14. IE550
LEADSCREWS
Leadscrew
Pitch
Nut
Converting the rotational motion of the motors to a linear motion.
pitch (p): the distance between adjacent screw threads
the number of teeth per inch (n):
n = 1 / p
BLU: Basic Length Unit (machine resolution)
BLU = p / N
e.g. an NC machine uses a 0.1" pitch leadscrew and a 100 pulse/rev
encoder.
BLU = p / N = 0.1 (in/rev) /100 (pulses/rev) = 0.001"

CONTROL LOOPS
Open loop - No position feedback.
Use stepping motor.
A machine has 1 BLU = 0.001".To move the table

INTERPOLATORS
Most common interpolators are: linear and circular
Since interpolation is right above the servo level,
speed is critical, and the process must not involve
excessive computation.
Traditional NC interpolators: Digital Differential
Analyzer (DDA)
Higher order curves, such as Bezier's curve, use off-
line approximation algorithms to break the curves
into linear or circular segments.
