Features: The book also has the following characteristics: (1) Unlike other programming books, this book provides a systematic description from the planning of CNC machining tasks to the programming of CNC machined parts, and offers the necessary preliminary knowledge for CNC programming, including trigonometry, feed speed and cutting feed, CNC control, tools, etc. It is highly systematic. (2) In terms of narrative methods, the book comprehensively introduces programming methods for codes while also explaining programming for specific machining methods such as milling, turning, and various fixed machining cycles. It also covers specialized topics like tool and workpiece installation and adjustment, tool compensation, CAD/CAM, etc. The book provides a complete and well-organized discussion of the content involved in CNC machining programming. (3) In terms of programming style, the book focuses primarily on the FANUC system, which has a high market share, making it authoritative, advanced, and highly adaptable. (4) The book is richly illustrated with diagrams and includes numerous programming examples, including short code programming examples and complete part machining programming examples. This makes it easier to understand and master both specific and comprehensive programming concepts, making the book easy to learn. (5) At the beginning of each chapter, the book lists the key knowledge points that can be learned, and at the end, it provides summaries and exercises, making it suitable for both teaching and self-study. (6) The table of contents and index of this book have been translated into Chinese for the convenience of readers. Given the above, the book is highly suitable as a bilingual textbook for mechanical and automation-related majors in universities and colleges, as well as an English textbook or teaching reference for vocational schools specializing in CNC technology. The book also holds significant reference value for engineering technicians in the CNC field. The positioning of this book is for college and university engineering students who wish to obtain CNC programming knowledge and improve their programming skills, as well as for mechanics and machine operators who need a concise and highly practical textbook. The content covers the fundamental knowledge of CNC machines and CNC machining, necessary mathematical knowledge, CNC part programming concepts, and advanced programming concepts and techniques for milling and turning centers. It highlights the G and M code programming language. Additionally, useful reference materials are provided in the appendix. The book's content is comprehensive and self-contained, making it an excellent textbook and teaching reference.
