Abstract: Designed a method based on the complexity of multiple nested parts to extract and analyze the information of parts. In order to simplify the algorithm and improve the efficiency of the program, a data structure stored all information of entities was presented. The theory of the region method was introduced in this paper, and a specific algorithm was designed to judge the nested relationship between contours by using this theory and entities information. Finally, the computational result can be used to determine the contour cutting order.

Abstract: In this paper the ball burnishing as a finishing process for sculptured surfaces is studied. This technique is a quick, easy and economical process for a significant improvement of high-end parts. Aiming at the burnishing of complex parts, different strategies are possible. In this case two strategies are presented: continuous burnishing (CB) using 5-axis interpolation and patch burnishing (PB) using 3+2 axis interpolation. Two parts have been previously machined in five-axis and then finished using ball burnishing techniques. The first one is an AISI 1045 hemisphere and the second one is a DIN 1.2379 part (64 HRC). Surface quality has been evaluated for both strategies obtaining a significant improvement of surface roughness and hardness.
