Abstract
A numerical control device according to an aspect of the present disclosure controls a machine tool that machines a workpiece by way of a tool in accordance with a machining program, and includes: an offset setting unit which decides an offset direction and an offset amount with an orientation of the tool as a reference, for every tool; a test-running path calculation unit which calculates a test-running movement path of the tool obtained by offsetting by the offset amount in the offset direction from a machining movement path of the tool designated by the machining program; and an operating mode selection unit which selects either one of a machining operation mode of causing the tool to move following the machining movement path, and a test-run mode of causing the tool to move following the test-running movement path.
