Abstract

Multi-axis CNC machining shows great advantages in manufacturing parts with geometries being defined by complex surfaces. NURBS (Non-Uniform Rational B-Spline) interpolation and polynomial interpolation are two new types of interpolation to improve productivity. Compared to the NURBS interpolation, the polynomial interpolation can gain higher productivity. However, no commercial software tool is available to generate polynomial interpolation CNC programs. This paper proposes a postprocessor to generate polynomial interpolation multi-axis CNC program. A case study with simulations demonstrated that the polynomial interpolation program generated by the proposed postprocessor has higher machining efficiency than liner interpolation and NURBS interpolation program.
