If the numerical control machine in equipment manufacturing industry is compared to a person, then the CNC system plays a role of human brain. Through NC system command scheduling, complex turning, milling, planning, grinding, boring, etc. process on one machine can easily be done automatically. From household items to the automotive, electrical equipment manufacturing, the national economic construction in all walks of life is inseparable from NC systems. And the manufacture of advanced weapons in the modern defense industry is more in need of high-speed, high-precision, multi-axis NC equipments. CNC systems have already been of key importance in promoting modern manufacturing industry. Therefore, many developed countries maintain vigilance on CNC technology, and keep an eye on the end users and end use of high-performance CNC system products sold to other countries.
The numerical control system is to manufacturing equipment what brain is to humans. China Manufacturing CNC systems have long relied on import. While Huazhong NC system relied on independent innovation of the core technology has risen rapidly, which breaks monopoly CNC technology held by developed countries, installing China-made equipments with their own “brains”. And that has become another successful example of industrialization of college scientific and technological achievement in the new period of China, as the “NC Central phenomenon”. This model is a reference for acceleration of advanced manufacturing technology, taking a road of independent innovation with Chinese characteristics.
