A complex curved surface shell part was taken as an example to discuss the application process and method of UG's CAD/CAM technology in the NC machining. The modeling module of UG was used to design the curved surface and create the 3D model. The processing route was planned after the process analysis. And the auxiliary fixture was designed. In the manufacturing module of UG, the appropriate processing parameters were set, and the tool paths were planned and edited. Then, all the optimized tool paths were generated. The specific post -processor was customized according to the CNC machine tool which was used to machine the part. And the NC code was generated by program post -processing. At last, the NC programs verified by NC simulation were imported to the CNC machine tool to process the part. The finished part had high accuracy and surface quality. The highly integrated CAD/CAM technology of UG created a good advantage in processing the curved surface shell part. It greatly reduced the difficulty and error rate of the NC programming. And it also improved the programming efficiency. The quality and efficiency of the NC machining were guaranteed. The summarized techniques of CNC programming and machining provide a reference for the similar parts and also help to improve the application level of UG's CAD/CAM technology.
