Most existing machining simulation software is geometric in nature, and ignores the physical aspects of the process. This paper reports research pra,gress towards developing a comprehensive physical machining process simulation program based on the ACIS solid modeling kernel. Both flat and ball end tools arc modeled, and multi-axis motion i,; supported. Flexibility of the both the tool are part is considered. A special sweep representation is used for Boolean part model updating. The system can be used for prediction as well as for intelligent factory floor control. Several examples of completed work are included to illustrate developed techniques.
