1 State the advantages of CNC machine over corresponding NC machine. Ans. Tape and tape reader are used only once Tape editing at the machine site Metric conversion Greater flexibility User-written programs Total manufacturing system Q.2 What are the different types of motion control system? Ans. Point to point Straight cut Contouring Q.3 What are the application of numerical control system? Ans. Parts are processed frequently and in small lot sizes. The part geometry is complex. Many operations must be performed on the part in its processing Much metal needs to be removed. Engineering design changes are likely. Close tolerances must be held on the workpart. It is an expensive part where mistakes in processing would be costly. The parts require 100% inspection. Q.4 Explain the procedure of NC. Ans. Process planning Part programming Tape preparation Tape verification Production Q.5. What are the various job performed by part programmer Ans. Input translation Arithmetic Calculations Cutter offset Post processor
Q.6 What are the different M-Code used in CNC programming? Ans.
Q.7 Write different disadvantages of NC? Ans. Higher investment cost Higher maintenance cost Finding and/or training NC personnel Q.8 Write an CNC part programming for the following;
Ans.
Q.9 What is adaptive control? How many types of adaptive control? Ans. Adaptive control optimization (ACO) IP = a function of (MRP/TWR) where MRR = material removal rate TWR = tool wear rate Adaptive control constraint (ACC) Q.10 Explain the Benefits of adaptive control machining. Ans. Increased production rates Increased tool life Greater part protection Less operator intervention Easier part programming
