Abstract
A lot of techniques for generating the tool path of 5-axis controlled machining that consider the avoidance of tool interference etc. are already proposed. Main commercial CAM software enable to calculate the tool path that is enough for practical use in the point that there is no tool interference. However, the current technique had the problem of outputting the tool path that was not available for the machine tool because the movable range of driving axes of the machine tool was not considered. In this report, the technique for calculating the tool path considering not only the tool interference avoidance but also the movable limit of an inclination axis of 5-axis controlled machine tool is proposed. Finally, the effectiveness of the technique is shown by the machining of the complicated shape that requires the great inclination of the table.
