  • Patent number: 10503140
    Abstract: An oscillation permission/prohibition notification part of a control device notifies an oscillation command generation part of generation permission of the oscillation command when a position command value has not reached within a predetermined range of a machining end point of a workpiece, and notifies the oscillation command generation part of generation prohibition when the position command value has reached within the predetermined range. A control part includes a learning controller and a learning determination part.
