Implementation of Innovative Methods for the Creation of Strategy Algorithms in CAD/CAM System Edgecam

Abstract

The paper deals with the issue of the machining process optimization by using the algorithms that were proposed for the creation of NC strategies in CAD / CAM systems. The possibilities to create NC strategy in CAD / CAM systems using Feature Based Machining were analyzed using Edgecam's Strategy Manager Module, Mastercam's FBM Drill, and Machining Knowledge Editor in the Siemens NX10. Strategy Manager Module of CAD/CAM system Edgecam was suggested for experimental use. On the basis of the of NC strategy creation definition in this system, the algorithms for creating of new NC strategies were proposed, and database application for this NC strategies were created. The use of created NC strategies will eliminate the repetitive steps in creating the machining process and shorten the NC program creation.
