Abstract
A cycle time estimator is a device configured to calculate for each block the time required for movement along a tool path specified by a NC command. The cycle time estimator divides the NC command into blocks, divides the tool path into segments, calculates segment travel times individually for the segments, and holds the correspondence between the blocks and the segments. The cycle time estimator further calculates block travel times by integrating the segments individually for the blocks and displays the blocks and the block travel times in association with one another in an editing screen for the NC command.
