Numerical Control Language Evaluation.
Abstract
An examination of seven numerical control programming languages was conducted to characterize them qualitatively and quantitatively. The purpose was to present data on the basis of which a potential user can make an expeditious, cost effective selection of a programming language. The report presents a description of each language and processor including: The proponent organization, the organization of the language and processor and procedures for their use, and an illustrative program of a simple part programmed in each language; Application characteristics--capability, availability, computer hardware requirements, implementation and typical costs; and, A check list of various geometric element formats recognized by the processor.
