Abstract

[Numerical control or numerically controlled (NC) machines are automatically operated by commands received by their processing units. The NC machines were first developed soon after World War II and made it possible for a precise and efficient production of large quantities of the desired components in a reliable repetitive manner. Early NC machines were often fed with instructions which were punched onto paper tape or punch cards. In the 1960s, NC machines largely gave way to computer numerical control (CNC) machines which refers specifically to a computer controller that reads G-code instructions (see Sect. 2.2) and drives the machine tool.]
