Abstract:Computer numerically controlled (CNC) machines are common pieces of equipment in manufacturing plants. In recent years, CNC‐user interfaces have been evolving from CNC command languages to menu‐based and direct‐manipulation interfaces. However, there have been few efforts to evaluate CNC‐user interfaces and to develop design strategies to improve their usability. An experiment is reported comparing the effectiveness of two user‐interface layouts for a CNC‐milling machine. One user‐interface layout was a simula… Show more
