The aim of the next generation of Computer Numerical Control (CNC) is to provide few key elements such as interoperability, openness, and flexibility in order to adapt with Industry 4.0. The basic nature of the CNC software systems hinders the users to improve and modify to meet the various needs of conventional CNC machine to keep up with the function of current technology. However, throughout the years, research have been conducted to overcome this issue. From the decade review made in the paper, it shows that almost 80% of the enhanced system utilizes ISO 14649 as the preferred ISO data environment due to its interoperability in receiving feedback of information between the Computer Aided technologies (CAx) and 35% (majority) of the researchers preferred Windows as their Operating System due to its flexibility in allowing modules and programs supporting the CNC machine to be developed.
