Rolling ball method applied to 3½½-axis machining for tool orientation and positioning and path planning
In 3½½-axis machining, the machined part surface is partitioned in pre-processing in order to calculate the tool position and patch boundaries and then machined in patches, thereby minimizing the intermediate manual part re-positioning and the overall machining time. Each patch requires a constant,...
