When this list was first started there was quite a lot about
Conversational
CNC, but nothing since, for a long time.
Would someone undertake explaining to me and the list, what, and
why
Conversational CNC is desirable, its advantages and disadvantages.
Hi Bill. A few years back I used the Bridgeport Proto trak
conversions where I worked. They are conversational and for short
run or prototype they could not be beat. All you need to do is follow
the menu and answer the questions! After years of using them, it
sounded like a steady stream of beeps (beeps everytime you press a
key). Mill and drill programs only took minutes to write! I really
think that it would great if someone would (could?) write such a
program! Thanks! Rick
Ps Cannot really remember any disadvantages.
