This paper introduces a simulation program which can be used in an NC vertical milling machine. A unique method is used for simulating the cutting process and displaying the three dimensional images. This method not only simplifies greatly the treatment of the hidden line but also creates a “photograph effect” image. The program is written in Visual B.展开更多

A new method based on the design model is raised to detect the collision and pre-check the interference during NC milling machining. A special problem about the construction of a cutter′s swept volume, self-intersection is discussed. All the work on the construction, the subtraction and the display of solids is accomplished with the help of ACIS 3-D modeling.展开更多
