Abstract

A controller controlling a synchronized operation of spindle and feed axes. A positioning-motion control section of a spindle-axis control section calculates a first velocity command making a spindle axis perform a decelerated rotation at a variable deceleration lower than a maximum deceleration during an acceleration-varying time just after the spindle axis reaches an intermediate speed or just before the spindle axis reaches a target position, and making the spindle axis perform the decelerated rotation at the maximum deceleration during a time except for the acceleration-varying time; calculates a second velocity command making the spindle axis perform a decelerated rotation at a constant deceleration lower than the maximum deceleration after the spindle axis reaches the intermediate speed; and chooses either one, achieving a lower speed, of the first and second velocity command during a period when the spindle axis operates from the intermediate speed to reach the target position.
