The Ring-Tool Profiling in CATIA Graphical Environment Based on the Family of Substituting Circles Method

Article Preview

Abstract:

The Family of Substituting Circles method is one among the methods used to study the reciprocal enwrapped surfaces. It is a complementary method, to whom a graphical application, designed in a dedicated environment (AutoCAD, CATIA etc.) can be associated. Diverse graphical solutions, for solving tools profiling problems, have been already conceived, associated to the Family of Substituting Circles method. In this paper, we suggest a new graphical application, developed in CATIA, for profiling the ring-tool reciprocal enwrapped to a cylindrical helical surface. An example of the new profiling method application is enclosed. The quality of the results obtained by using the new profiling method is assessed by comparison to the solution of the same problem found through an analytical method.
