CNC Programming

Handbook, Third Edition


(Volume 1)
By
Peter Smid
Industrial Press, Inc.

Over its first two editions, this best-selling book has become the de
facto standard for training and reference material at all levels of
CNC programming. Used in hundreds of educational institutions
around the world as the primary text for CNC courses, and used
daily by many in-field CNC programmers and machine operators,
this book literally defines CNC programming. Written with careful
attention to detail, there are no compromises. Many of the changes
in this new Third Edition are the direct result of comments and
suggestions received from many CNC professionals in the field.
This extraordinarily comprehensive work continues to be packed
with over one thousand illustrations, tables, formulas, tips,
shortcuts, and practical examples.

The enclosed CD-ROM now contains a fully functional 15-day


shareware version of CNC tool path editor/simulator, NCPlot™.
This powerful, easy-to-learn software includes an amazing array of
features, many not found in competitive products. NCPlot offers an
unmatched combination of simplicity of use and richness of
features. Support for many advanced control options is standard,
including a macro interpreter that simulates Fanuc and similar
macro programs.

The CD-ROM also offers many training exercises based on


individual chapters, along with solutions and detailed explanations.
Special programming and machining examples are provided as well,
in form of complete machine files, useful as actual programming
resources. Virtually all files use Adobe PDF format and are set to
high resolution printing.
