Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A numerical control device inputs a machining program to control an operation of a machine tool and outputs feedback data obtained as a result of the operation of the machine tool. The numerical control device includes a machining-program analysis unit that analyzes the machining program having a machining shape command to which a mark or a specific program command is attached and that outputs a marking instruction; a delay unit that delays the marking instruction until the feedback data indicating a result of an operation of the machine tool based on the machining shape command is obtained; and a feedback-data output unit that, when having detected the feedback data and the delayed marking instruction, executes, onto the feedback data, marking corresponding to the mark or the specific program command attached to the machining shape command and outputs the feedback data.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

The invention claimed is: 1. A numerical control device that inputs a machining program to control an operation of a machine tool and outputs feedback data obtained as a result of the operation of the machine tool, the numerical control device comprising: a machining-program analysis unit that analyzes the machining program having a machining shape command to which a mark or a specific program command is attached and that outputs a marking instruction; a delay unit that delays the marking instruction until the feedback data indicating a result of an operation of the machine tool based on the machining shape command is obtained; and a feedback-data output unit that, in response to having detected the feedback data and the delayed marking instruction, executes, onto the feedback data, marking corresponding to the mark or the specific program command attached to the machining shape command and outputs the feedback data. 2. The numerical control device according to claim 1 , wherein the feedback-data output unit executes marking onto the feedback data according to a program command instructing a start and an end of the marking. 3. The numerical control device according to claim 1 , wherein the feedback-data output unit outputs the feedback data according to a program command instructing a start and an end of output of the feedback data. 4. The numerical control device according to claim 1 , wherein the feedback-data output unit executes marking onto first feedback data among a plurality of pieces of feedback data corresponding to the machining shape command. 5. The numerical control device according to claim 1 , wherein the feedback-data output unit executes marking onto feedback data corresponding to a start and an end of a specific machining shape command among a plurality of pieces of feedback data corresponding to the specific machining shape command.
