![]() The validity of the proposed tool path generation scheme is realized experimentally when is applied to a semi-finishing path in pocket milling. By maintaining cutting engagement constant, the cutting force can be regulated approximately constant, thus minimizing the variation of tool deflection, and improving machining accuracy. Presented in this paper is to propose an algorithm to generate a new offset tool path generation scheme, which regulates a constant cutting engagement with workpiece in 2.5D end milling. In a finishing process, such variation of cutting forces causes the degradation of machining accuracy and surface finish. During end milling with contour-parallel (CP) offset tool paths, the tool experiences a varying engagement with the workpiece, which leads to a variation in cutting forces.
