A processor for a computerized numerical controller for providing motion planning and interpolation has a first transputer element programmed to convert program data to fixed format binary data and to store converted data in a generated convert data buffer. The convert data buffer is transmitted to a second transputer element programmed to precalculate motion control data therefrom and stores such precalculated data in a generated precalculated data buffer. The precalculated data buffer is transmitted to a third transputer element programmed to interpolate the precalculated data to provide a real time interpolated point stream defining a motion trajectory.
