What is Direct Numerical Control (DNC)?

DNC - engineering hulk

A more advanced version of the NC system is direct numerical control (DNC) machines where one computer controls multiple machines in real-time. The DNC system is not equipped with the tape reader and therefore increases the reliability of the machining system. The prepared part program is transmitted from the computer’s memory directly to the machine … Read more
