WorkNC Auto5——全新模具5轴加工编程技术

The New 5-Axis Techniques of CAM System for Mold Machining——WorkNC Auto5

5轴加工的一个主要特征就是在切削过程中使用短刀具,从而显著降低刀具的受力弯曲,提高加工表面质量,防止返工并大量减少了电极的运用。5轴编程中人们往往十分关注对干涉和碰撞的检测及回避,但是对CAM系统而言,仅有这些是远远不够的,系统必须充分考虑到机床的运动学与几何学的限制条件,这对CAM系统是一个强有力的挑战。

The use of shorter cutters is a key feature of 5-Axis machining. It significantly reduces the deflection of the tool results in a better surface quality, prevents reworking and reduces immensely the number of electrode erosions. We particularly pay attention to collision control and avoidance, but it is not enough. The automated collision avoidance of a cutter path, while keeping the machine dynamics and the respect of the given machine limitations, are strong challenges for today＇s CAM system.
