System to prepare a perforated numerical control tape for machine tools, particularly flame cutting machines

摘要

A device of this kind has a computer (10) into which geometric characteristic values of the component (14) to be manufactured are input in order to produce a punched tape. In order to achieve a simple component description/coding, it is proposed that a video camera (11) is connected for the purpose of component input into the computer (10), with which video camera the geometric shape and the dimensions of a component drawing (13, 14) can be detected and thus fed directly to the computer.
