Abstract: How to generate a NC machining path on sculptured surfaces for nonspherical cutters is also a difficulty with which researchers into CAM technology are now confronted. This paper presents such a new method that the NC machining path for the nonspherical cutters can be generated on the sculptured surfaces if their parametric representations are known.

Key words: CAM, NC programming Cutter, Sculptured surface
