Abstract

We address the problem of developing analytical models of the cutter-path length in pocket machining. The availability of such analytical models will enable the determination of an optimal set of cutting-tools and cutter-paths that will minimize the time or cost to machine a pocket. In this paper, we derive an analytical model for machining a 2.5-D pocket having the shape of an equilateral triangle with rounded corners. The proposed approach can be used to derive analytical models for other regular convex polygonal pockets.
