Patent ID: 11126158

Abstract:
There is provided a numerical controller capable of automatic selection of a function appropriate for a machining request and optimization of parameters, and a CAD/CAM-CNC integrated system. The numerical controller includes: a shared database storing machining resource information about the numerical controller and a machine tool; and machining instruction information including machining content information created by CAD and CAM and machining request information about a request required for machining; a machining instruction deciphering portion deciphering the machining instruction information; and a machining instruction executing portion executing the machining based on a result of decipherment by the machining instruction deciphering portion; and the machining instruction deciphering portion executes at least one of a process for judging whether the machining is possible or not based on the machining instruction information and the machining resource information, a process for deciding parameters for the machining and a process for automatically selecting a function to be used for the machining.
