A method for automated manufacturing strategy generation can include: identifying features of a desired part from a virtual model; and determining a tactic strategy based on the identified features. The method can additionally include: determining a toolpath primitive for each tactic; combining the toolpath primitives for the tactics to generate a master toolpath; and translating the master toolpath into machine code.

A ladder program editing support apparatus edits a ladder program by causing a display to display a plurality of circuit elements that is each displayed as a symbol in an area between a plus bus line and a minus bus line in the ladder program and makes up the ladder program. The ladder program editing support apparatus includes the display that displays the ladder program, and an edit control unit that selects a selected range to be edited within the ladder program displayed on the display and displays identification information on the circuit elements included in the ladder program within the selected range on the display in the form of a list according to a preset displaying order.

A numerical controller includes an analysis unit to analyze a machining program and extract a coordinate rotation angle that is a rotation angle of a coordinate system specified in the machining program; and a coordinate transformation unit to transform a coordinate value in the machining program into a coordinate value in a machine tool to be controlled on the basis of polarity information created on the basis of at least one of a movement direction and a rotation direction of an axis of the machine tool, and the coordinate rotation angle.
