ABSTRACT:
A numerical controller for a grinding machine is provided with a memory device, a data processor, a data input device, a display device and a manual pulse generator. After the setting positions of a grinding wheel carrier, a tail stock and the like of the grinding machine are changed in connection with the replacement of a grinding wheel with new one and the change in kind of workpieces, the input device is manipulated to display a desired one of images on the display device. The manual pulse generator is then operated to move components such as the grinding wheel carrier and a work table to a state indicated by the displayed image, and a storage command switch of the input device is depressed. In response to this depression, the data processor reads the present positions of the components in the state displayed on the display device and calculates based upon the read present positions data which is used in numerically controlling a machining operation of the grinding machine. The data processor carries out such calculation using one of equations determined depending upon the state being displayed on the display device and then, stores the calculated data in a storage area of the memory device determined by the state being displayed on the display device.
