Sculptured Surface Machining

Abstract

The purpose of this chapter is to present the SSM-process planning problem in a structured manner. Topics to be discussed in this chapter include: (1) the basic structure of process planning models, (2) concepts of freeform-features and machining-features, and (3) an approach to feature-based process planning. The subject of process planning is treated such that the material presented in this chapter can be used (1) in developing computer-automated process planning (CAPP) systems as well as (2) as a practical guide for planning SSM-operations during CAM programming.
