Abstract
A numerical controller using table format data, the numerical controller including a memory which stores table format data, in which time or a position of a spindle or feed shaft serving as a reference is arranged so as to correspond to a position of a spindle or feed shaft other than the spindle or feed shaft of which position serves as a reference or an output of an auxiliary function, a reference value counter which inputs the time or the position of the spindle or feed shaft serving as a reference, wherein the position of the spindle or feed shaft other than the spindle or feed shaft of which position serves as a reference or the output of the auxiliary function is controlled.

A numerical controller configured to operate based on table format data, the numerical controller comprising:
- a memory which stores table format data, in which time or a position of a spindle or feed shaft serving as a reference is arranged so as to correspond to a position of a spindle or feed shaft other than the spindle or feed shaft of which position serves as a reference and an output of an auxiliary function, for each of the spindle or feed shaft other than the spindle or feed shaft of which position serves as a reference and the auxiliary function;
- and
- a reference value counter which inputs the time or the position of the spindle or feed shaft serving as a reference,
- wherein, sequentially reading the position of the spindle or feed shaft other than the spindle or feed shaft of which position serves as a reference and the output of the auxiliary function in synchronization with the value of the reference value counter, the position of the spindle or feed shaft other than the spindle or feed shaft of which position serves as a reference and the output of the auxiliary function is controlled,
- the reference value counter is provided for each spindle or feed shaft other than the spindle or feed shaft of which position serves as a reference and for each auxiliary function,
- each of the table format data is executed based on each value of the reference value counter, and
- the table format data for each spindle, the table format data for each feed shaft, and the table format data for each auxiliary function includes a waiting code that waits for operation using another table format data, and after a waiting command is executed based on the waiting code, an operation among each spindle, each feed shaft, and the auxiliary function are synchronized.
