    摘要: A numerical control unit for a machining apparatus which operates under the control of a machining program comprising a plurality of blocks, such blocks being adapted to define a command or instruction for specifying and automatically controlling the relative movement between a machine tool and a workpiece with respect to one or more of linear and rotational axes, and being modifiable at starting-point and end-point areas in a single block to specify desired variations in relative movement or feedrate. The feedrate may be controlled on the basis of preset rules within a single block without dividing a machining path into a plurality of blocks for controlling the feedrate, the preset rules being changeable by an operator whereby his machining know-how can easily be incorporated into the machining program. Rules incorporating machining know-how are set in a knowledge storage section, an inferring section is provided independently of the knowledge storage section to ensure ease of additions and corrections to the rules, and the inferring section synthesizes the results of inference provided by a plurality of rules and deduces a final conclusion, whereby complex control can be easily achieved with various factors taken into consideration. Rules set in the knowledge storage section can be described in a production rule format, allowing a final conclusion to be achieved by fuzzy inference.

    摘要: A numerical control unit for changing a cutting condition of a machine tool during machining of a workpiece. The numerical control unit includes a knowledge storage section for storing at least two rules for changing the cutting condition. At least one of the rules defines a rate at which movement of the machine tool is decelerated based on the position of the machine tool with respect to a corner of the workpiece. Other rules may define the rate at which movement of the machine tool is decelerated based on the shape of the corner of the workpiece being machined. Also, the other rules could be established based on the material of the tool or workpiece. The knowledge storage section further includes a rule description part and assessment functions. The numerical control unit further includes an inferring section for inferring the optimum value of the cutting condition on the basis of at least the rule or rules which define the rate at which movement of the machine tool is decelerated based on the position of the machine tool with respect to the corner of the workpiece. The numerical control unit then causes a workpiece to be machined in accordance with the cutting condition inferred by the inferring section.
