free-form surfaces

5-axis flank CNC machining of free-form surfaces using custom-shaped tools

Dr.Michael Barton

Mar 13, 09:00 - 10:00

free-form surfaces geometric computing

In this talk, I will discuss our recent advances in approximation of free-form surfaces by motions of curvature varying tools in the context of 5-axis flank CNC machining. In particular, I will discuss path-planning strategies using fixed tools, or custom-shaped ones, and on an example of spiral bevel gears will demonstrate even more efficient variant of flank machining, called double-flank.
