wr..."Many embedded programs, however, can't be fixed at all because they are inscribed on silicon chips. In those cases, whole pieces of factory equipment, from time clocks to expensive computer numerically controlled (CNC) machine tools, have to be junked and replaced." cnc machines are run by a controller such as a fanuc. only the fanuc controller would need to be replaced if it couldn't be repaired, not the entire machine, correct? best
