CNC Machining

The CNC Machining path planning algorithm refers to the algorithm used to generate the optimal machining path when automatically controlling CNC machine tools for machining operations. Common CNC machining path planning algorithms include the following:

1. Linear interpolation algorithm: Based on the linear segment interpolation algorithm, the method of interpolation along the straight path is calculated by giving the coordinates of the starting and ending points.

2. Arc interpolation algorithm: Based on the arc interpolation algorithm, the method of interpolation along the arc path is calculated by giving coordinates of the starting point, endpoint, and center (or radius).

3. Curve interpolation algorithm: A curve based interpolation algorithm that calculates the interpolation method along the curve path by giving the coordinates of the curve control points. The commonly used curve interpolation algorithms include Bessel Curve and B-spline curve, etc.

4. Shortest path algorithm: an algorithm that calculates the shortest path based on the given coordinates and topology information of the machining point. Common shortest path algorithms include Dikstra algorithm, A * algorithm, etc. 5. Contour cutting algorithm: an algorithm used to cut closed contours, which can generate paths suitable for cutting operations based on given contour information,.

These algorithms can be selected for appropriate applications based on specific processing requirements and the characteristics of the machine tool.
