Numerical controller, machine tool, and control method for machine tool

Abstract

A numerical controller includes an extraction unit configured to extract at least one non-machining section from a tool path based on sensor information indicating a physical quantity detected by a sensor, a tool moving along the tool path, and the tool and a workpiece not coming into contact with each other in the non-machining section, a setting unit configured to set an end position of reverse movement in one non-machining section among the at least one non-machining section extracted by the extraction unit, the tool reversing along the tool path in the reverse movement, and a control unit configured to control the reverse movement.
