Abstract
This paper presents an algorithm for improving the interpolation accuracy in turning operations. The parts considered are formed by revolving a free-form profile which is implemented in terms of Bezier formulation around a center linear axis. The demand for the manufacturing of such geometric shapes is frequently met in parts produced by casting and forging methods. The method employs a computer numerical control (CNC) turning machine and is based on the locus tracing concept. The algorithm described utilizes a real-time CNC interpolator providing the highest possible accuracy of which the turning machine is capable. The whole machining task can be programmed as a canned cycle, essentially extending the feature generating capabilities of the existing G70/G73 CNC turning fixed cycles.
