Abstract
A numerical value controller for a machine tool includes a storage unit storing a machining program for drilling a hole in a workpiece in accordance with relative movement between a tool and workpiece in a depth direction, and a control unit controlling the relative movement between the tool and workpiece based on the machining program and that moves the tool relative to the workpiece in the depth direction from a return point to a hole bottom point. The return point is a position retracted in the depth direction from a workpiece surface where the tool starts to perform drilling. The machining program includes a command for a workpiece height point as a position of the workpiece surface. The control unit moves the tool relative to the workpiece in the depth direction at a relative rate higher than a cutting feed rate from the return point to the height point.
