Notes:
According to the analysis of engagement between indexing roller and cam contour asgear indexing cam mechanism operating and milling process as contour being machined, threekinds of surfaces, cam’s contour, the surface swept by roller’s axis during engagement and thesurface swept by cutter’s axis in milling process, are equidistant surfaces. Based on isometrictheory, the approaches to determine tool path and to calculate NC program coordinates forinequi-diameter milling have been developed. The architecture of computer aided programmingsoftware for inequi-diameter milling was illustrated. Practical example of inequi-diameter millingNC codes was presented. In inequi-milling process, NC program can be updated to adapt the changeof cutter diameter in time. So, cutter’s life can be prolonged, the cost of cutter can be cut down
