CNC Programs

The CNC program Think of giving any series of step-by-step instructions. A CNC program is nothing more than another kind of instruction set. It's written in sentence-like format and the control will execute it in sequential order, step by step. A special series of CNC words are used to communicate what the machine is intended to do. CNC words begin with letter addresses (like F for feedrate, S for spindle speed, and X, Y & Z for axis motion). When placed together in a logical method, a group of CNC words make up a command that resemble a sentence. For any given CNC machine type, there will only be about 40-50 words used on a regular basis. So if you compare learning to write CNC programs to learning a foreign language having only 50 words, it shouldn't seem overly difficult to learn CNC programming.

Feature - Verifying CNC Programs Safely

Key CNC Concept #10. For the most part, CNC controls will follow the instructions given in a program to the letter. With the exception of basic syntax mistakes, the CNC control will rarely be able to tell if a mistake has been made.
