ØNumerical Control popularly known as NC is very commonly used in the machine tool industry.
ØNumerical control is defined as the form of programmable automation in which the process is
controlled by the number letters and symbols.
Ø Incase of the machine tools this programmable automation is used for the operation of the machines.
Ø The numerical control machine is defined as the machined that is controlled by the set of instructions
called as the program.
Ø In numerical control method the numbers form the basic program instructions for different types of
jobs; hence the name numerical control is given to this type of programming.
Ø When the type of job changes, the program instructions of the job also change it is easier to write the
new instructions for each job, hence NC provides lots of flexibility in its use.
Ø Due to NC all the machining operations can be performed at the fast rate resulting in bulk
manufacturing becoming quite cheaper.
