    Numerical control (NC) involves using a prepared program to automatically control a machine tool. NC equipment interprets numerical data to control actions like starting and stopping the spindle, setting spindle speed, and positioning the tool tip by automatically controlling slide motion along desired paths and rates of movement. There are two types of motion control in NC systems: open loop, which does not use feedback, and closed loop, which uses feedback to ensure the tool is in the correct position.

    FUNDAMENTALS OF NUMERICAL CONTROL

    Controlling a machine tool by means of a prepared program is known as numerical control or NC. NC equipment has been defined by the Electronic Industries Association (EIA) as A system in which actions are controlled by the direct insertion of numerical data at some point. The system must automatically interpret at least some portion of this data

    In NC Machine Tool one or more of the following functions may be automatic: Starting and stopping of the machine tool spindle. Controlling the spindle speed. Positioning the tool tip at desired locations and guiding it along desired paths by automatic control of motion of slides. Controlling the rate of movement of
