Abstract
Presented in this chapter are C-space based tool-path generation methods for roughing, with a special emphasis on pocket machining. Topics to be discussed are (1) characteristics of roughing operations, (2) CL-surface construction for roughing, (3) tool-path generation for pocket-machining, (4) 2D offsetting for CPO tool-path generation, (5) handling of uncuts in pocketing, (6) special issues in pocket-machining and (7) C-space approach to collision detection.
