A Study of developing an APT simulation program and its execution on a bench type lathe

This paper describes the development of an 2D simulation software for APT CNC coding. This software controls a desktop CNC lathe Unit enabling users to graphically visualise machine operation using the parameters given. CNC M & G codes and APT language are briefly discussed then issues on developing in house simulation software are presented. (The Paper is in Turkish)
