ABSTRACT:
A numerically controlled machine tool is provided which comprises an operation control unit with an operating panel having key switches disposed thereon whereby data on the finish shape and finish dimensions of a workpiece and the machining conditions including spindle rpm and feed rate can be transferred into a control unit. On the basis of this input, the control unit automatically prepares a processing program which decides on the amounts and directions of movement of the tool rest longitudinally and transversely from a reference point which is inherent in the machine and controls the movement in accordance therewith so as to automatically machine the workpiece to the predetermined shape and dimensions. A desired final processing shape may be designated by using function keys on the operating panel bearing words in everyday or conversational language, whereupon the control unit automatically decides what is the data necessary for the particular machining that should be put in and then it turns on guide lamps corresponding to the decided data successively in the order in which the data should be put in, so as to guide the operator. Thus, it is only necessary for the operator to put in specific numerical values by means of ten-keys under the guidance.
