Abstract
The paper describes a simple and computational-effective method for non-mathematical surfaces interpolation by means of spline functions. The method is intended for a CNC machine working environment in which the machines must create the surfaces using standard trajectory interpolators, capable of describing straight lines and circular arcs, thus allowing this kind of job to be performed on relative low cost machines, affordable to SMEs.
