TOOL PATH GENERATION BASED
ON STL FILE FOR SHEET METAL
DIELESS FORMING*
Abstract:
Sheet metal dieless forming is a new metal forming technology. This technology
adopts the principle of rapid prototyping technology, so it can
form sheet metal parts without traditional die and moulds.
According to the characteristic of sheet metal dieless forming technology a new way of tool path generation based on the STL file for sheet metal dieless forming is proposed.
Key words: Sheet metal Ddieless forming Tool path STL file |
