Conversational CNC Programming: An Introduction with Programming Demonstrations Using Mori Seiki Multi-axis, High-Precision, High-Efficiency Integrated Mill Turn Centers

This publication is a professional quality DVD video introducing and demonstrating the various conversational CNC programming features, and some simple programming examples of an advanced, integrated Mori Seiki multi-axis mill turn CNC (Computer Numerical Control), a precision, high-efficiency machine tool. This video is an ideal introduction to CNC operators, and production / industrial / manufacturing systems engineers who want to understand the basic principles of conversational / graphical CNC programming. Furthermore conversational CNC programming concepts are explained and demonstrated for automated machining factory designers and operations managers, quality control engineers, industrial and manufacturing systems engineers, visual factory designers, workforce productivity improvement managers, CNC machinists and programmers, engineering and management students & faculty, interested in eliminating unnecessary waste, and improving productivity by utilizing integrated mill-turn CNC machines, methods and technologies. (See more about these methods and technologies in Professor Ranky's Library.) Level: CNC operators who want to learn about conversational / graphical CNC programming, industrial engineers, lean machining cell programmers, automated machining factory designers and operations managers, quality control engineers, manufacturing systems engineers, visual factory designers, workforce productivity improvement managers, students & faculty, interested in eliminating unnecessary waste, and improving productivity by utilizing integrated mill-turn CNC (Computer Numerical Control) machines, methods and technologies. Also excellent for undergraduate / graduate education and research.

CNC Programming Handbook, Third Edition

Over its first two editions, this best-selling book has become the de facto standard for training and reference material at all levels of CNC programming. Used in hundreds of educational institutions around the world as the primary text for CNC courses, and used daily by many in-field CNC programmers and machine operators, this book literally defines CNC programming. Written with careful attention to detail, there are no compromises. Many of the changes in this new Third Edition are the direct result of comments and suggestions received from many CNC professionals in the field. This extraordinarily comprehensive work continues to be packed with over one thousand illustrations, tables, formulas, tips, shortcuts, and practical examples.

The enclosed CD-ROM now contains a fully functional 15-day shareware version of CNC tool path editor/simulator, NCPlotâ?¢. This powerful, easy-to-learn software includes an amazing array of features, many not found in competitive products. NCPlot offers an unmatched combination of simplicity of use and richness of features. Support for many advanced control options is standard, including a macro interpreter that simulates Fanuc and similar macro programs.

The CD-ROM also offers many training exercises based on individual chapters, along with solutions and detailed explanations. Special programming and machining examples are provided as well, in form of complete machine files, useful as actual programming resources. Virtually all files use Adobe PDF format and are set to high resolution printing.
