NC (Numerical Control) Machine

 Numerical Control (NC) machine ::

    It is the machine or device which is controlled by direct input of data in the form of symbols,numbers,letters or in combination of these.

Automatically controlling a machine tool based on a set of pre-programmed machining and movement of instructions is known as Numerical Control.



In NC machine, the program is fed in punched tape.NC is essential in modern industrial robotics.

NC machine is based on Computer Integrated Manufacturing (CIM) for operation and controlling of machine tools.

In point-to-point system of nc a device is programmed to perform a series of motions with fixed starting and stopping points.

There are three types of NC machines ◆

●Traditional Numerical Control (NC machine)

●Computer Numerical Control (CNC machine)

●Direct Numerical Control (DNC machine)

NC machine is programmed by punched tape and once a programme is fed it can not be changed.

Application of NC :

   NC machine has a various application such as metal cutting operation,automatic drafting operation,spot welding operation,press working operation, assembly, inspection etc . It basically works metal removing process.Exp- metal working,turning,sawing, grinding,milling, drilling,boring etc.

The NC is suitable to sequence of machining process.

Application of NC is divided into two parts :

1.Machine tool application

2. Non-machine tool application
