Abstract
A numerically controlled apparatus for a machine tool has a tool and machining condition automatically controlling function, and stores standard data of tools and machining conditions in a standard database. The input device of the apparatus inputs the users data of tools and machining conditions other than the contents of the standard database, and the apparatus stores the data inputted with the input device in one or more user databases. The tool and machining condition automatically determining function of the apparatus determines tool and machining condition data by utilizing both of the standard database and one or more the user databases.
Claims12
A numeric control apparatus for a machine tool for automatically determining a tool and a machining condition, the apparatus comprising:
- a standard data database storing standard data for tools and machining conditions;
- an input device for inputting a user's data for tools and machining conditions in addition to the standard data for tools and machining conditions;
- at least one user database storing data input through said input device;
- an automatic tool and machining condition determining means for determining tool and machining condition data from the standard database and the at least one user database;
- and
- contradiction checking means for checking contradictions between newly entered data and existing data when renewing the data of the user database and the standard database.
