Introduction to CNC Technology
NC is the automation of machine tools that are operated by precisely programmed commands encoded on a storage medium, as opposed to controlled manually by hand wheels or levers, or mechanically operated by cams alone.
Most NC today is CNC in which computers play an integral part of the control.
NC (Numeric Control) - Drawbacks ;
1. No program...
