1. INTRODUCTION
Introduction to Computer Numerical Control (CNC)
 CNC is defined as ‘Control of machine tools and other manufacturing

equipment using computer programs’ (R.R.Kibbe, 2006).
 Since the earliest days of production manufacturing involving the precision
of duplication of parts, manufacturing engineers and industrial technologists
have sought ways to increase dimensional accuracy and to increase the
speed of production.
 After the development of computers, CNC had been used to control
machines in order to get high degree of repeatable precision.
 The precision dimensional requirements that are the mainstay of the
machining processes, such as drilling, turning and milling, have made CNC
ideal to control the machines.
 Today, CNC is not only limited to machining processes. It also appears in
many other types of manufacturing processes.
 CNC is also used for robotic spot welding, wire welding, robotic assembly,
pipe and tube bending, laser and plasma arc cutting, wood routers, flame
and abrasive water jet cutting, electro-discharge machining (EDM), spray
3 painting and etc.
1. INTRODUCTION – (cont’d)

 A CNC lathe machine does the same operations as the conventional lathe
machine. It is used to produce component with circular cross section using
turning operations and related tasks such as drilling, boring, tapping and
reaming.
 The main difference is the use of CNC to control the operation of the
machine.
 Using computer programs, CNC lathe machines are able to produce
4 components with all the advantages associated with CNC.

3. CNC PROGRAMMABLE AXES
The Programmable Axes on CNC Lathe Machine
 Every CNC machine tool is designed to position the workpiece and cutting
tools to perform cutting operations.
 Each machine has a definite three dimensional volume of space in which
tools and workpieces may be moved about and positioned.
 On CNC lathe machines, the spindle axis is Z and the cross slide is X (figure
below).

4. CNC PROGRAMMING
CNC Lathe - Basic Programming Concept
 The purpose of NC programming is to write a sequence of events to be

done, a set of cutting tool to be used and a set of machine control functions
to be used to apply the tools and position the workpiece properly.
 The program stage in manufacturing process is as shown below.
8 Programme stage in manufacturing process

4. CNC PROGRAMMING –(cont’d)
CNC Program Standard Code
 Most modern CNC programming is done in the word address format

 Preparatory function codes or G codes. Usually noted in uppercase (G)
 Programmable axes dimensional information for positioning tools and
workpieces (X, Y, Z, a, b, c)
 Miscellaneous function codes or M codes. Usually noted in uppercase (M)
 Various other letter codes such as I, J, K, F, S and R
9
Basic Programming - Program Configuration
 Generally a program consists of:

1. Program Name
2. Sequence Name and Sequence label
3. Coordinates and commands
4. Remarks
5. End of program block
 This information is presented using ALPHABATIC CHARACTERS and

NUMERIC CHARACTERS. Each line of characters is called a BLOCK.
O________ (Can be omitted if only one program in the file)

N________ G_X_Z_S_T_M_
:
:
M2
10
Program Name (Program Number)
 Program name designation

O_ _ _ _
 Up to 4 characters can be used
 The characters can be numeric
 Alphabetic character must be a head of numeric character.
 Example: Program name
1. O1234 -OK
2. OAB12 -OK
3. O1AA2 - Tak OK- after AA (sama)
4. O123 = O0123
 Program name can be omitted if there is only one main program in the file.
11
Sequence Name and Label
 A sequence name is defined as a name assigned to a block. Numeric or

alphabetic characters following after “N” are designated for a sequence
name.
N_____
 Sequence name must be placed at the beginning of a block. However it is
not essential to include sequence name in program
 Sequence name may be specified in any order.
 Example: Program name
1. N1234 -OK
2. NAT02 -OK
3. N1AT2 -tak OK (alphabet and numeric-berselang-seli)
4. N123 tak sama N0123
12
Commands
 Machine carries out its tasks by following the commands written in a

program. These commands are presented by groups of codes, so called G
code and M code. Each code commands the machine to do specific action.
 For example:
1. G00 commands the machine to move the cutter at a rapid speed to a
specific point in the work.
2. M08 commands the machine to start spraying coolant through the
nozzles.

Coordinates
 In order to let the machine know where it should move the tool, the
coordinate point have to be specified. The coordinate value is represented
by X, Z, A, C, I and K-axis. However, only X and Z-axis is being concerned
in this class.
X±_____.___ Z ±_____.___
 In default parameter setting, the unit system is in millimeters
X90.1 is effectively 90.1 mm or 90100μm
 Also by default, the unit system allow 3 significant digits after the decimal
point. X0.001
 Decimal point is not essential if integer value is assigned.
X90 is effective as X90. or X90.0
 Example: X -70.711 Z100
X 90.001 Z90
16
 Other code address include F, S, T, P, Q……

Where:
F = Feed rate (cutting)
S = Spindle speed (Rotation – clockwise @ counterclockwise)
T = Tool number and tool offset number
17
Tool Selection
 Selection of a cutting tool is made by 4 digit figures following a

character T
T_ _ _ _ Example: T 02 02
Tool Offset Number

Tool Number
 When Tool nose radius compensation function is used, selection of a

cutting tool is made by 6 digit figures.
T 02 02 02
Tool Offset Number
Tool Number
Tool nose radius compensation
18
Controlling The spindle (S, M03, M04, M05)
 Logically the spindle must be rotating before the cutting process

commences. These codes are used to control the direction and its
speed.

 Example:
T0101
S2000 M03
G00 X188 Z204

 In the above example:

1. T0101 commands the machine to select tool number 1
2. S2000 Sets the spindle speed to 2000 rpm
3. M03 Commands the spindle to rotate in clockwise direction speed
determined by previous S code. In this case, 2000 rpm.
20 4. M05 Stops the spindle
Coolant on/off (M08, M09)

Program Stop and Program End (M00, M01, M02)
 M00 Program Stop. The machining cycle stops when this code is
encountered during program execution. Pressing CYCLE START at this
point will resume the operation.
 M01 Optional Stop. M01 performs the same functions as M00, except,
it is only effective when the OPTIONAL STOP button on the control
panel is switched on. Pressing CYCLE START at this point will be resume
the operation.
 M02 End of program. It must be included to indicate end of a
program. This code also resets the control.
Example:
T01 01 01
S2000 M03
G00 X188 Z204
X185
M00 (Operation cycle stop here)
M08 (Operation cycle continues here when CYCLE START button is
