Introduction Welcome to Productivity, Inc., your local Haas Factory Outlet (H.F.O.) for the Haas Lathe Programming Class. This class is intended to give a basic understanding of the set-up and operation of a Haas Turning Center. In an "NC" (Numerically Controlled) machine, the tool is controlled by a code system that enables it to be operated with minimal supervision and with a great deal of repeatability. "CNC" (Computerized Numerical Control) is the same type of operating system, with the exception that a computer monitors the machine tool. The same principles used in operating a manual machine are used in programming an NC or CNC Machine. The main difference is that instead of cranking handles to position a slide to a certain point, the dimension is stored in the memory of the machine control
