21st century of NC equipment will is has must intelligent of of system, intelligent of of content including in NC system in the of all aspects: for pursuit processing efficiency and processing quality aspects of intelligent of, as processing process of since adapted control, process parameter automatically generated; for improve drive performance and the using connection convenient of intelligent of, as Qian feed control, and motor parameter of since adapted operation, and automatically recognition load automatically selected model, and since whole set,; simplified programming, and simplified operation aspects of intelligent of, as intelligent of of automatically programming, and Intelligent human-computer interface; and intelligent diagnosis, intelligent monitoring of contents, easy system diagnosis and repair.

In order to solve the numerical control system of closed and NC application problem of the industrialization of the software production. Current research on open numerical control system in many countries, such as the NGC (the next generation work-station/machine control), EC osaca (open system architecture for control withinautomation systems), Japan, OSE (open system Environment for controller), the ONC (open numerical control system). Opening numerical control system of numerical control system's road to the future has become. So-called open NC system is NC system of development can in unified of run platform Shang, oriented machine manufacturers and eventually user, through change, and increased or cut structure object (NC function), formed series, and can convenient to will user of special application and technology trick integrated to control system in the, fast achieved different varieties, and different grade of open NC system, formed has sharp personality of brand products.

Currently open CNC system architecture specification, communication standards, specifications, operating platform, CNC system function libraries and NC system software development tool is the core of the current.

Networked CNC equipment is one of the well-known international machine tool Expo nearly two years new.

Networking of NC equipment will more than satisfy production lines, manufacturing systems and manufacturing enterprise information integration needs, but also the new manufacturing model such as agile manufacturing,virtual enterprise, a global manufacturing base unit. Both at home and abroad some famous NC machine and NC system manufacturing company are in near two years launched has related of new concept and prototype, as in emo2001 exhibition in the, Japan Yamazaki (Mazak) company displayed of "cyberproduction Center" (intelligent production control center, referred to CPC); Japan big Kengo Kuma (Okuma) machine company displayed "it Plaza" (information technology square, referred to it square); German Siemens (Siemens) Companies exhibited open manufacturing environment (open manufacturing environment, referred to as OME), reflects the CNC machine and network trends.
