Abstract
Increasing demands on precision machining of free-form surfaces have necessitated the tool to move not only with position error as small as possible, but also with smoothly varying feedrates. In this paper, linear, circular and spline interpolators were developed in reference-pulse type using PC. M-SAM and M-DAM were designed by the comparison and analysis of previous interpolation methods. Spline interpolator was designed to follow the free-form curves. To apply to the real cutting process, constant feedrate compensation and acceleration-deceleration compensation were conceived. Finally, its performance was tested using retrofitted milling machine. As a result, new interpolation algorithm is favorable in precision machining of free-form curves.
