| dc.description.abstract | Combining the advantages of layered manufacturing and material removal processes, additive/subtractive solid freeform fabrication (A/S SFF) can build parts with complex shapes without compromising precision requirements. However, preparing material removal operations requires special expertise, which has in fact become one of the bottlenecks of the A/S SFF manufacturing process. To achieve automated planning, a shaping process planner is being developed based on. 3D solid representation and a surface classification scheme. This planner can generate numeric control (NC) codes for CNC milling in an automatic fashion on non-undercut features of arbitrary 3D input geometry. Planning approaches are also presentedinorde~to>shape parts accurately and efficiently. The proposed shaping planner thus delivers on the promise offully automated process planning in A/S SFF. | en_US |
