  • Patent number: 10114363
    Abstract: A numerical controller generates a machining cycle, and controls a machine tool by executing the machining cycle. A block to be corrected is selected from among a plurality of blocks of the machining cycle, the selected block is corrected, and correction information of the block is generated based on the correction and stored. Then, the machining cycle is generated based on the correction information of the stored block and the machining cycle is executed.

  • Publication number: 20090125139
    Abstract: During path table operation, date and time information at sampling, the value of the reference signal, the position of an axis controlled in synchronization with the reference signal, and information on the state of the numerical controller are stored, for each predetermined sampling cycle, in buffer as operating history information. The operating history information stored in buffer is then transferred in operating history saving memory when an alarm is generated, and then displayed on a display device. By displaying operating history in this way, the location of the data instructed in path table operation, the state of the numerical controller and the position of the control axis when an alarm is generated can be specified.
