A numerical control unit.

摘要

A numerical control unit is provided for controlling the movement of a machine element (19) or workpiece with respect to a movable machine tool device (9), such as a lathe, milling machine or drum press, in response to input control information as well as detected machine tool position and speed information. A pulse generation system (10), responsive to machine tool movement, provides pulses to registers (11,14) that store position and speed information. Synchronized control of the machine tool (9) and machine element (19) or workpiece movement on the basis of both position and speed parameters is conducted under processor control (17). <IMAGE>
