Before the introduction of automatic machines and automation,
industrial manufacturing of machines and their parts for the key
industries were made though manually operated machines. Due to
this, manufacturers could not make complex profiles or shapes with
high accuracy. As a result, the production rate tended to be slow,
production costs were very high, rejection rates were high and
manufacturers often could not complete tasks on time. Industry was
boosted by the introduction of the semi-automatic manufacturing
machine, known as the NC machine, which was introduced in the
1950's at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology in the USA.
After these NC machine started to be used, typical profiles and
complex shapes could get produced more readily, which in turn lead
to an improved production rate with higher accuracy. Thereafter, in
the 1970's, an even larger revolutionary change was introduced to
manufacturing, namely the use of the CNC machine (Computer
Numerical Control). Since then, CNC has become the dominant
production method in most manufacturing industries, including
automotive, aviation, defence, oil and gas, medical, electronics
industry, and the optical industry. Basics of CNC Programming
describes how to design CNC programs, and what cutting parameters
are required to make a good manufacturing program. The authors
explain about cutting parameters in CNC machines, such as cutting
feed, depth of cut, rpm, cutting speed etc., and they also explain
the G codes and M codes which are common to CNC. The skill-set of
CNC program writing is covered, as well as how to cut material
during different operations like straight turning, step turning,
taper turning, drilling, chamfering, radius profile, profile
turning etc. In so doing, the authors cover the level of CNC
programming from basic to industrial format. Drawings and CNC
programs to practice on are also included for the reader.
