.... This paper analyzes the properties of the swept profile of a general cutter in five-axis tool-end machining. The relation of the swept profile, the part geometry, the tool motion, and the machining errors is developed. Therefore, the error sources can be detected early and prevented during tool path planning...

...Zezhong C. Chen; Geoffrey W. Vickers; Zuomin Dong Three-axis CNC milling is often used to machine sculptured parts. Due to the complex surface shape of these parts, well-planned tool paths can significantly increase the machining efficiency. In this work a new principle of CNC tool path planning...
