Abstract
This paper presents the implementation of an exter- nal axis control system on a conventional CNC ma- chine so that the machine can be actively controlled in response to sensors such as vision and force. The controller that runs on an external computer has di- rect access to the CNC controller for machine posi- tion sensing. The control signals to
