Abstract
As developing countries gain strength in manufacturing technologies, developed countries have to shift their course in producing highly value-added products. Artistic products, different from conventional industrial products, are considered to be one of high value-added products, which contain a number of skills of experienced operators. However, artistic products in developed countries are requested to be automatically produced by means of efficient machine tools with multifunction and powerful CAD/CAM systems. Such a manufacturing way may be named 'Dexterous Machining'. The Dexterous Machining is an idea to take skills of experienced operators into machining technology. As the first step, a new machining method and a procedure of a complicated shape with a nested structure are devised and developed in the study to establish a CAM system for the Dexterous Machining. The CAM system contrives an efficient machining method by use of a special jig and a support pillar. A machining experiment is conducted to confirm the validity of the devised machining method and the developed CAM system. As a result, it is confirmed that the developed CAM system is effective to create the nested structure.
