Abstract
An apparatus and method for generating numerical control information for numerically controlling machine tools. Contents of corrective editing or correction to numerical control information by a processing operator is written and stored in a processing method database as processing knowledge of the processing engineer. When a programmer generates new numerical control information, a suitable processing method can be used from the processing method database. The knowledge included processing conditions by the processing operator. The information in the processing method database is updated at each and every processing.
