This paper deals with the fundamental research for the development of human-oriented NC machine tools with which workers can feel pride and pleasure making full use of their ability in manufacturing. As a first step toward human-oriented NC machine tools, Machining Phenomenon Visualizing System (MPVS) which allows workers to see and check actual machining process as stationary state has been developed and installed on a NC lathe. Through many practices, it has been proved that the vision by MPVS provides much usefull information on machining for workers. Meanwhile, the study in the first report has proved that the factors contributing to worker's satisfaction in manufacuring originate from the following seven satisfaction factors-technical skill, interest, social contribution, creativity, subjectivity, feedback effect and diversity. In this paper, according to these seven satisfaction factors, MPVS has been evaluated by inexperienced workers, lathe skilled workers and NC lathe skilled workers using Information Integration Method. The results show that MPVS greatly improves worker's satisfaction and has immediate strong effect on feedback effect and creativity for all types of workers.
