Abstract
A numerical control system and method for providing actual relative movement along a path commanded by the distance along three perpendicular axes by digital movement in each axis. The actual movement is sub-divided into a plurality of successive final lengths each of which may include a movement on each axis. The extent of each final length is determined by initially determining the extent of a length that is most acceptable as to deviation and velocity on the two axes having the largest and middle commanded distance and then setting the extent of the final length by determining the most acceptable extent as to deviation on the axis having the smallest distance. Each final length is made to have an extent on each axis which bears a numerical relationship with the movement on the same axis for the immediately prior length.
