For courses in Introductory Computer Numerical Control.
Putting all the elements together, this text addresses CNC (Computer Numerical Control) technology in a comprehensive format that offers abundant illustrations, examples and exercises. It includes a strong foundation in blue print reading, graphical descriptions of CNC machine tools, a chapter on right triangle trigonometry and programming that uses Fanuc Controllers. It emphasizes program pattern recognition and contains completely solved programming examples and self-contained programming examples. Thoroughly updated for this edition, it includes two new chapters, four new appendices, and is bundled with Predator Simulation and Kwik Trig software.

Hallmark Features
Programming that uses Fanuc controllers–stresses fundamental word address (G and M code) programming.
· Prepares students to use the industry standard.
An emphasis on program pattern recognition–shows how a certain group of programming commands constitute a programming pattern–e.g., pattern A commands start up the CNC machine, where as pattern B commands cause a tool change to take place, etc.
· Helps students learn to organize lines of CNC code into specific groups that execute particular machining operations.
Over 92 completely solved programming examples in word address–emphasizes industrial standard practices and terms and highlights the important topic of job set up.
· Introduces students to industrial standard practices and terms, including job setup; part fixturing information, tooling etc.
Over 165 self-contained programming exercises–specify operations to be performed, tooling, tool speed, tool feed and job fixturing data.
· Gives students and instructors abundant hands-on opportunities to test their developing programming skills.
Self-contained, thoroughly tested program listings–each program is listed with all explanations appearing on the same page.
· Gives students and instructors confidence that programs will run as expected.
· Helps students avoid time consuming (and often confusing) cross-referencing.
