Abstract: The purpose of the present invention concerns a control command for a machine tool, and is to make it possible to adopt a high-frequency repetitive oscillation command, without restrictions on communication capacity, when acquiring a control command created by superimposing a command with repeatability on a normal move command such as a move command having no repeatability. The purpose can be achieved by: acquiring, from an higher-order control device, only information about the form of a command, and parameter information on numerical information relating to an amplitude, a period, and other feature amount; creating a repetitive movement command that is a command with repeatability only from the parameter information; and superimposing the repetitive movement command on a normal move command such as a move command having no repeatability.

Abstract: The objective of the present invention is to make it possible to also handle cases in a control device for a machine tool in which the waveform of a repeatable command superimposed on a normal movement command has a free shape that cannot be expressed only by a feature amount when obtaining a control command in which the repeatable command is superimposed on the normal movement command as a control command of the control device. The abovementioned objective is achieved by providing a servo control device with: a repeatable command creation unit that acquires the period of a repeatable command waveform and one period of command data from a higher-level control device, creates a repeatable command, and outputs the result; and a command superimposing unit that acquires a movement command from the higher-level control device and superimposes the repeatable command output by the repeatable command creation unit on the movement command.
