Automatic Generation of Toolpath for Sculptured Surface Machining
SAE Technical Paper Series, 1996<div class="htmlview paragraph">Based on a 3D model generated in a CAD system, a rapid prototyping system can manufacture a prototype in few hours. The most common techniques for rapid prototyping use materials like resins and polymers. The difference between the material of the manufactured prototype and the real piece makes the realization of ...

Boundary-conformed toolpath generation for trimmed free-form surfaces
Computer-Aided Design, 2003In this paper, we adopt a 2D reparameterization procedure to regenerate boundary-conformed toolpaths. Three methods for the 2D reparameterization of trimmed boundaries in parametric space are examined and compared. They are the Coons method, the Laplace method, and a newly developed boundary-blending method.

An improved toolpath generation algorithm for fused filament fabrication
2017 IEEE International Conference on Robotics and Automation (ICRA), 2017Widely-used methods for toolpath planning in fused filament fabrication slice the input 3D model into 2D layers and construct a toolpath. In prior work (ICRA 2016) we gave a simple greedy algorithm that changed this paradigm and constructed the toolpath in 3D by printing local features in their entirety. This algorithm significantly improved upon layer-

Curve fitting with arc splines for NC toolpath generation
Computer-Aided Design, 1994This paper investigates a biarc toolpath based on arc-spline theory, which reduces the storage and oscillation problems in conventional NC programming. The method uses continuous circular-arc segments to approximate the smooth curve. With a given tolerance, it can remove the excessive data point, and thus reduce the size of the NC program. It should be

A geometric approach to boundary-conformed toolpath generation
Computer-Aided Design, 2007Isoparametric or streamline-like toolpath generation is an important method for CNC surface machining. For a trimmed surface, the generation of such a toolpath is not straightforward because by simply following the isoparametric curves of the parametric surface to generate the toolpath, the resulting toolpath may no longer conform to the trimmed ...

Toolpath Generation for Additive Manufacturing Using CNC Milling Machine
2018Additive Manufacturing (AM) systems have gained popularity, due to their capability of producing parts in layer-by-layer manner with any degree of complexity. Although in the last three decades, various commercial AM systems have been developed, however, high cost of the indigenous materials used in commercial machines is the major hindrance for wide ...
