Abstract
This paper proposes an exact method for the detection and elimination of local gouging, at a cutter contact point, in five-axis machining of sculptured surfaces using flat-end tools. The designed surface is assumed to be at least C2 and could have C1 and/or C0 seams. q2000 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.
