An Efficient Iso-Scallop Toolpath Planning Strategy Using Voxel-Based Computer Aided Design Model
Journal of Computing and Information Science in Engineering, 2022Abstract The primary objective of an efficient computer numerical control (CNC) finishing toolpath strategy is to reduce the machining time and maintain desired surface finish (scallop). Among traditional toolpath planning strategies, iso-scallop gives the shortest toolpath while achieving a uniform surface finish.

Toolpath strategy based on geometric model for multi-axis medical machine tool
CIRP Annals, 2011Abstract Toolpath generation for a multi-axis medical machine tool is a challenging task. In surgical procedures, it is difficult to apply industrial CAM technology owing to the requirement for quick toolpath generation and the likelihood of tool interference with complex structures of the target area. The objectives of this study are to optimize the
