Building 3D Geometric and Kinematic Models of Five-Axis Machine-Tools for Manufacturing Prosthetic Devices

Abstract:

The paper presents the process of building and testing a geometric and kinematic model of a five-axis machining center, which can be used for accurate cutting processes simulation of complex parts. After building the model, it was be tested by simulating the machining process of a hip joint prosthetic device. The prosthetic device was chosen because of its complex shape and because it was obtained by a 3D scanning process, which means that the part was reconstructed using meshes, instead of surfaces, which makes the toolpath control more difficult.
