Abstract
CAD graphic data includes information corresponding to a machining shape, and at least one attribute information out of a line type, a line color, a line thickness, an a layer. Graphic data corresponding to the machining shape is extracted from the CAD graphic data based on setting by setting means, and an NC program is created from the extracted graphic data. Accordingly, the graphic data corresponding to the machining shape can be extracted even when an operator does not check the graphic data.
Claims5
A wire-electrical discharge machine having an NC program creating function to create an NC program from CAD graphic data, wherein
- the CAD graphic data includes a line constituting a graphic and attribute information of the line, and the attribute information of the line includes at least one of a type, a color, and a thickness of the line, and a layer, and wherein
- the wire-electrical discharge machine comprises:
- setting means that sets an attribute of a line extracted as a machining shape from the CAD graphic data;
- extracting means that extracts graphic data corresponding to the machining shape extracted from the CAD graphic data, based on the setting by the setting means;
- and
- NC program creating means that creates an NC program from the graphic data corresponding to the machining shape, extracted by the extracting means.
