Abstract

A computer-implemented method and system is disclosed for controlling a cutting tool of a high speed cutting machine. The method and system provides an effective tool path for controlling a cutting machine under a constant rate of material removal in a high speed cutting machine in order to get away with the extreme cutting forces. The tool path also allows to better transfer the heat generated between the cutting tool and the workpiece through the chip. The method and system can be applied to any geometry of final shape of a workpiece.
