Abstract
As an introduction, it is useful to describe statistically the growth of production and trade in CNC lathes in the decade 1975–84. I have chosen to begin in 1975, not only on account of the availability of data but also because the first microcomputer-based CNC unit was produced in 1974. The importance of this technical development for the diffusion of CNC lathes was discussed in section 2.2.
