Tool path planning is critical to fully realise the producing capabilities of multi-axis machine
tools and improve the precision and efficiency in multi-axis machining. Up to now, more than …

Parallel machine tools (PMTs) are suitable for machining parts with complex surface
features, owing to their advantages in providing flexible attitude adjustments and quick …

The world is currently undergoing profound changes which have never happened within the
past century. Global competition in the technology and industry fields is becoming …

This article proposes a kinematic method to continuously interpolate G01 commands in
industrial five-axis machine tools. Finite impulse response (FIR) filters are adopted to …

Geometric errors of five-axis machine tools, ie position independent and position dependent
geometric errors (PIGEs and PDGEs), should be compensated in order to improve the …

This paper proposes a volumetric accuracy enhancement method of rotary axes in five-axis
machine tools through constructing equivalent rotary axis (ERA). The influences of …

Continuous linear commands are widely executed in computer numerical control (CNC)
machining. The tangential discontinuity at the junction of consecutive segments restricts the …

Compared with the traditional machine tools, robots are low-cost and flexible for the
machining process. However, owing to the complex constraints in the operation space and …

Abstract Laser-powder DED (LP-DED) has been investigated extensively for the rapid
prototype of complex and customized metallic parts and in-situ repairing tasks. However …

The mobile hybrid machining robot has a very bright application prospect in the field of high-
efficiency and high-precision machining of large aerospace structures. However, an …
