摘要
A method is presented for generating interference-free tool paths from parametric compound surfaces. A parametric compound surface is a surface that consists of parametric surface elements. The method is largely composed of two steps: points are obtained from a compound surface to be converted into a triangular polyhedron; tool paths are then generated from the polyhedron. An efficient algorithm is used in the calculation of cutter-location data, and planar tool paths, which are suitable for metal cutting, are produced. The time taken to obtain all the tool paths from a surface model that consists of a large number of parametric surfaces is short. Some real applications are presented.
