 Tool Path Planning in conjunction with Exit Order Sequence 

 Amit Bansal and Kiha Lee 

Sponsored By: CODEF 

Abstract 

The purpose of this research is to bring out the advantages of applying tool path planning in conjunction with exit order sequence (EOS) to minimize burr formation in face milling. While tool path planning avoids exit burr condition in high priority regions, EOS can help determine appropriate tool geometry and in plane exit angle for smaller burr size in exit regions. Tests were performed on engine blocks from an automotive production line and results were very encouraging.

Keywords: Burr formation, exit order sequence, milling, tool path
