HOW CNC WORKS
Controlled by G and M codes.
These are number values and co-
•
ordinates.
• Each number or code is assigned
• to a particular operation.
•
• Typed in manually to CAD by
machine operators.
G & M codes are automatically
generated by the computer software.
FEATURES OF CNC MACHINERY
The tool or material moves automatically.
Tools can operate in 1-5 axes.
Larger machines have a machine control
unit (MCU) which manages operations.
Movement is controlled by motors
(actuators).
Feedback is provided by sensors
(transducers)
Tool magazines are used to change tools
automatically.
CNC PROGRAMMING BASICS
CNC instructions are called part program commands.
Individual Words
PROGRAMMING KEY LETTERS
O - Program number (Used for program identification)
N - Sequence number (Used for line identification)
G - Preparatory function
X - X axis designation
Y - Y axis designation
Z - Z axis designation
R - Radius designation
F – Feed rate designation
S - Spindle speed designation
H - Tool length offset designation
D - Tool radius offset designation
T - Tool Designation
M - Miscellaneous function
Advantages of CNC
Easier to program;
Easy storage of existing programs;
Easy to change a program
Avoids human errors
CNC machines are safe to operate
Complex geometry is produced as cheaply as simple ones

BHEL generally uses CNC machines to achieve its
manufacturing targets. For manufacturing works of
large scale it is very difficult to work with manual
machines as they are time consuming.
