Abstract
A numerically controlled machine tool is equipped with a programmable sequence controller having a first storage area capable of storing operation commands, and a second storage area capable of storing a duplicate of the data planted in the first storage area without erasing the planted data. An operation command, when sent from a numerical control device to the machine tool, is stored in the first storage area and then, when the machine tool has completed the instructed operation, is read out from the first storage area and stored in the second storage area, this operation being repeated as each new command is issued. When electric power is connected to the machine tool, the data stored in the first and second storage areas is compared, an alarm being generated when the two sets of data do not agree.
