Product Description 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, NCPlotâ„¢. 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. | ||

Best book on this subject This is by far the best book on the subject of CNC programming. Even if you have an earlier edition, it is still worth upgrading to the 3rd Edition. Peter Smid knows his subject. | ||
Interesting work Good topic, accurate programs, and creative layout. We are impressed by this book and will order another one for the shop floor at our firm. Anchan, there is no such word as "evidences". Keep studying English. B.G. | ||
Insightful, a good read Please ignore the childish comments about minor typo errors. They come from someone who feels that Evidences is a word..... I enjoyed this book, and made it suggested reading at my class. Technical books are to be judged on content and merit, areas where Mr. Smid has excelled with his CNC Programming Handbook.

Some evidences Tom, could you please at least read the book? Take it from someone who *read* the book. I don't care much about english in the book and I totally agree that it is a good book but it could have been better. Apart from mathematical incorrect, some of the examples in the book also incorrect. Look in page 311 programe O3503 for example. Look in page 53 for the word "theses" Bye, I have to go and study some more english. :) | ||
