Abstract

It is increasingly popular to use Computer Numerically Controlled machining to mass-produce objects that require high levels of precision. These machines work through a pre-programmed computer software that dictates the movements of the tools and machinery. Tangent continuity is often needed throughout the surface of the machined object for aerodynamic and aesthetic purposes. Consequently, in this thesis we derive the necessary and sufficient conditions for tangent continuity between the surfaces generated by two adjacent passes of a tool. We developed an interface that allows the user to visualize the different surfaces that can be obtained when imposing the necessary conditions for tangent continuity. Moreover, it illustrates the geometrical elements that come into play when defining a tool, an envelope and the continuity conditions between two envelopes.
