Abstract
The aim of the present paper is to define tool-path in CAM package and extract the coordinate points from G-code for numerical simulation of Single Point Incremental Forming (SPIF). The Truncated Cone, Truncated Pyramid, and Hyperbola were the parts used to define the tool-path in Mastercam environment. The G-code created from the Truncated Cone and Truncated Pyramid were the samples in the extraction of X, Y, and Z coordinate points. Extraction of the coordinate points was conducted by using Microsoft Excel commands. The paper shows that Excel commands can automatically extract coordinate points from a huge table of alphanumeric mixed string data. Finally, the extracted coordinate points were defined for the Numerical Simulation of SPIF and that works successfully.
