Abstract
This paper presents a convenient and an easy to use manufacturing method for parts with axisymmetric geometry on CNC milling machines. The desired form of the cavities is achieved by selecting as generatrix curve any plane curve, implicitly or parametrically defined, which fulfills specific imposed by the user criteria (functional, aesthetic or other). Each machining pass is modelled as a path composed of generatrix curve segments and semicircular arcs. The surface quality is controlled by keeping the distance between successive scallops within a programmed value. Tool motion along the desired paths is generated by G-code algorithms that exploit the parametric programming technique, a powerful CNC programming tool. The effectiveness of the proposed method is verified by simulation tests for three representative curves.
