Abstract

Due to the inadequate residue amount in traditional algorithm, this article further studies the generation principles and algorithms of offsetting curves and space-filling curves, and tool-path generation in parameter field and surfaces. The problem in generating and jointing space-filling curves of different powers is solved by constructing space-filling curves with control vector. By dividing the data of rectangular region into rectangular blocks, and combining the space-filling curves and offsetting curve algorithm, the mixed tool-path is successfully generated.
