Features: The book "CNC Programming" is divided into seven chapters. Chapter 1: Introduction, which covers the development of CNC programming technology, how to learn CNC programming, the classification of CNC programming, programming steps, relevant standards for CNC programming, and the structure and format of programs. Chapter 2: Process Analysis in Program Development, which discusses the main content and steps of CNC machining process analysis, as well as the formulation of CNC machining process documents. Chapter 3: Numerical Calculation in Program Development, which provides a detailed explanation of the calculation methods for base points, node points, and tool path trajectories, as well as circular arc filtering for dense list points and numerical calculations in surface machining. Chapters 4, 5, and 6 respectively cover the programming fundamentals, methods, and examples for CNC lathes, CNC milling machines, and machining centers. Chapter 6 also specially introduces subprogram functions and user macro program functions. Chapter 7: MasterCAM Software Automatic Programming, which describes an overview of MasterCAM software, its CAD and CAM functions, post-processing and communication functions, and examples of MasterCAM9 applications. This book emphasizes fundamental theories, progresses from simple to complex, and closely integrates with practical programming. It also includes insights and research findings from the authors in multiple sections, making it an essential reference book for CNC programming personnel and a valuable teaching material for enterprise and institutional CNC technology training. The book is suitable not only for intermediate and advanced CNC programming training in CNC technology but also as a textbook for relevant majors in higher vocational and technical education, CNC competition training, and an important reference for technical personnel engaged in CNC technology.
