COMPARED TO PROGRAMMING TECHNIQUES USED TODAY, A SOLID MODELING BASED MANUFACTURING FEATURE CAN AID IN THE GENERATION AND REGENERATION OF NUMERICAL CONTROL DATA WITH MINIMAL USER INTERACTION. SOLID MODELING TECHNOLOGY APPLIED TO THE PRODUCTION OF NUMERICAL CONTROL (NC) TAPES ALLOWS EACH STAGE OF THE NC TAPE PROGRAMMING TO BE MODELED AND VISUALIZED MUCH AS IT WOULD BE SEEN ON THE MACHINE. THIS PAPER EXAMINES THE ADVANTAGES OF FEATURES AND SOLID MODELING IN NC PROGRAMMING.
