CNC Machine Tools Technology

Introductory Video

The knowledge of the latest CNC machine tool technologies and their kinematics is essential for those aiming at gaining an in-depth understanding of their operation so that they can fully exploit their true potentials as well as recognize their limitations.

This course examines the current state of modern technologies for CNC machine tools and their kinematic aspects by presenting in detail the systems and tools that complement the operation of CNC machines as well as the hardware found to new generation’s control units, i.e. the functions to allow for flexible interaction between the operator – programmer and the machine tool. It also examines the categories of functions integrating modern CNC control units, dealing with CNC programming; the machine’s operational behavior, and diagnostics / troubleshooting functions.
