NURBS curve fitting is used for tool path planning for sculptured surface NC machining. The cutter location data is parameterized by equal chord arc length parameterization, and Centripetal Parameterization is improved. It is not only more approach to curves nature equation in theory, but also closer to the interpolated curves in actual fitting. It is directly to reflect the curvature of curves of cutter location in NC machining.

Geometric deviation, defined as the distance between the designed surface and the machined surface, is an important component of machining errors in five-axis flank milling of the S-shaped test piece. Since the interpolated toolpath in practical machining process is the approximation of the theoretical toolpath, the geometric deviation caused by the interpolated toolpath appears. To overcome this problem, a novel geometric deviation reduction method is suggested in this study. First, the features of the S-shaped test piece are analyzed. Second, the theoretical toolpath is generated according to the designed surface and the cutter location data is obtained by discretizing the theoretical toolpath. The linear interpolation of the cutter location data is carried out to obtain the interpolated toolpath. Then, the geometric deviation is modeled by calculating the Hausdorff distance between the tool axis trajectory surface based on the interpolated toolpath and the offset surface of the designed surface. Finally, the geometric deviation is reduced by optimizing the cutter location data without inserting more cutter location points. The machining experiment is conducted to verify the effectiveness of the proposed method. The experimental results agree with the simulation results, and both of them indicate the geometric deviation on the machined surface reduces after optimization.

Postprocess capable of converting the cutter location data to machine control data is an important interface between the NC programming design and manufacture.Due to the fact that current research on multi-axis postprocess methods mostly deals with machine tool configurations whose linear and rotational movements are orthogonal, an efficient postprocess algorithm for the five-axis machine with a tilting head is presented in this paper.DMU 80P which is a five-axis machine with a tilting head is selected as an example.Its mechanism model is proposed in this paper according to the mechanism theory.The kinematics model is established using coordinate transformation,and the solution of this model is discussed.Based on these,a window-based post-processor with multi-choice function was developed by VS2010 language.Through the verification by the commercial solid cutting software VERICUT,the feasibility of the algorithm proposed is demonstrated.At last,a real impeller cutting experiment has been conducted and the result further verifies the correctness of the algorithm.

An impeller is the core of aviation engine components, the processing quality has a decisive impact on the performance of the engine. An impeller is also one of the most important basic components of centrifugal compressor. When a three-axis CNC machining centre is used for producing an impeller, great difficulties, i.e. collisions between the cutting tool and the impeller, can occur. As the surface is normally twisted in design to achieve the required performance, it can cause overcut and collision problems during machining. To solve these problems, an integrated five-axis machining approach for a centrifugal impeller by combining related machining technologies is developed. As a result, Cutter Location data based on the geometry model of blade and hub of the impeller are generated. Finally, the Cutter Location data is verified through software simulation. The results prove that the machining methodology adopted is useful and efficient.

A simple, yet useful procedure is developed to generate tool paths with global interference checking for five-axis machining of turbomachinery components with complex geometries. Based on the projected distance between the surface data and the cutter-axis of a cylindrical ball-end mill, interference between the surface of a workpiece and the cutter can be detected. Given the cutter contact points of the surface and the cutter’s size, it can produce the cutter location data without incurring interference through relatively rotating and tilting the workpiece. Applications of the developed approach to five-axis machining of centrifugal compressor impellers with thirteen and fifteen blades are illustrated to demonstrate the usefulness and reliability of the procedure.

Reducing time cost of polishing process is a major issue in metallic mold manufacturing. The feed rate, i.e., tangential velocity, of a polishing robot is generally limited to maintain stable contact with workpieces having a large curvature. We propose a feed rate generator using fuzzy reasoning for polishing robots that regulates the feed rate along free-formed surfaces appropriately. The smaller the curvature of the model designed by a 3D CAD, the larger the distance between two adjacent cutter location data (CL data) steps generated by the main processor of CAM. Therefore, given curvature results in acquiring the distance between two adjacent steps of CL data. We also propose a hybrid position/force controller with the feed rate generator enabling the robot to conduct polishing efficiently. Experiments show promising results.
