One of the important tasks in 5 axis machining of large sculptured surfaces is to control and reduce the machined errors. This paper presents the methods to control geometrical errors based on the establishing of the link between geometrical errors and the parameters of tool path planning. The non linear errors, which are majority of geometrical error during 5 axis machining, are strictly analyzed and formulated. Consequently, an adaptive step length method is proposed to effectively control the cutter contact path error. Moreover, the measures to reduce the scallop error in machining of the large sculptured surfaces are discussed as well. With the combination of this research with CAM software, both the large Kaplan and Francis hydro turbine blades have been successfully machined. It shows that the machined errors can be effectively controlled and the machining efficiency can be improved in the machining of the large sculptured surfaces by the proposed methods.
