Abstract: | First the architecture of the integrated CAD/CAM system developed for machining large scale steel-concrete girders using I-DEAS and other developing tools are introduced; then the involved technologies in the development of the system are presented, which include the method for determining the position and orientation of the manufacturing features, the method for geometrical modeling of the girders, the techniques for generating the toolpaths for the 5-axis machining centers, the generative process planning... |
