Abstract

In the present invention, for an NC program for controlling a machine tool, information for machining quality required by a machine tool is prewritten in the program. A measurement program for measuring the machining quality of the workpiece using a measuring machine is produced by analyzing the NC program. The machining quality of the workpiece is measured by the measurement program and the measuring machine. The machining quality of the workpiece can be judged by comparing the measurement results and the machining quality information included in the NC program. By utilizing this quality judgement, simple and effective system control can be achieved when a system such as CIM (Computer Integrated Manufacturing) is constructed in cooperation with other machine tools.
