Abstract
In a numerical controller that controls a machine tool having a plurality of driving axes, coordinate system conversion processing for a machining program is performed in which the machining program is analyzed and then an instruction based on a right-handed coordinate system and an instruction based on a left-handed coordinate system are interchanged.
Claims10
A numerical controller that controls a machine tool having a plurality of driving axes based on a first machining program, the numerical controller comprising:
- a coordinate system conversion unit that outputs a second machining program obtained by applying coordinate system conversion processing to the first machining program;
- and
- an instruction analysis unit that outputs instruction data for specifying operation of the driving axes based on the second machining program, wherein
- the coordinate system conversion processing applied by the coordinate system conversion unit involves interchanging of an instruction based on a right-handed coordinate system and an instruction based on a left-handed coordinate system.
