Publication number: 20160154404Abstract: A numerical controller operates a machine tool based on a plurality of parameters and a machining program. A user is allowed to refer to a parameter that has not been set, in other words, a parameter not falling within the range of recommended setting values, among parameters that may influence the shortening of a cycle time of the operation of the machining program on a display screen. For this reason, the user can use the parameter as a reference for reviewing the parameter setting for the purpose of shortening the cycle time or the like.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 3, 2015Publication date: June 2, 2016Inventors: Takuya SAITOU, Koichi MURATA, Mamoru KUBO

Publication number: 20160011582Abstract: A numerical controller includes a storage area for storing startable start-up settings and a database for storing start-up setting values that inhibit the completion of a start-up. If a start-up has been completed at the time of start-up, current start-up settings are stored in the storage area as startable settings. If the start-up has not been completed, start-up setting values that inhibit the completion are registered in the database, the current settings are reconstructed to startable settings, and the numerical controller is restarted. After start-up settings are changed, the database is searched. If the same start-up settings as the changed start-up setting are found, the found start-up settings are outputted.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 2, 2015Publication date: January 14, 2016Inventors: Tatsuya SHIROSE, Mamoru KUBO, Koichi MURATA
