The paper described a new algorithm for 5 axis tool path
generation based on faceted models. The inclination of
a flat end mill is dynamically optimised for maximal
material removal rate. Gouging is eliminated by further
adapting the tool inclination angle. eventually combined
with tool lifting. Sudden changes in the inclination angle.
due to gougings near the cc-point. has been solved by
the implementation of tool inclination angle control.
Machining results stmw the feasibility of rmLaxis tool
path generation based on faceted models.
