NUMERICAL CONTROL DEVICE, MACHINE TOOL, CONTROL METHOD, RECORDING MEDIUM, AND STORAGE MEDIUM

原文（中文）

A numerical control device, a machine tool, a control method, a recording medium, and a storage medium are capable of driving a cutting fluid spouting mechanism at an appropriate timing. Based on a processing program, chips are generated by the processing of a workpiece disposed in a cover, and a CPU controls a spouting mechanism that washes away the chips by spouting cutting fluid into the cover by driving a pump. The CPU determines whether or not a specific time before a first prescribed time from the time when the processing program ends has been reached, on the basis of the processing time from the start of processing based on the processing program to the end of processing. When the CPU determines that the specific time has been reached, the CPU drives the pump for the first prescribed time from the specific time to the end of the processing program.
