Direct Toolpath Generation Based on Graph Theory for Milling Roughing
Procedia CIRP, 2014 AbstractThe paper presents a tool path generation methodology for roughing operation based on the oriented graph theory. The cutting areas are identified using an original method that is based on a bicolor and binary map. The toolpath is generated using the searching Dijkstra algorithm inside a graph in order to find the single-source shortest path ...

CNC Milling Toolpath Generation Using Genetic Algorithms [PDF]
, 2016 The prevalence of digital manufacturing in creating increasingly complex products with small batch sizes, requires effective methods for production process planning. Toolpath generation is one of the challenges for manufacturing technologies that function based on the controlled movement of an end effector against a workpiece.
