Optimizing tool size and tool path of five-axis flank milling with bounded constraints via normal mapping

This article presents an approach to generate optimal couples of tool size and tool path for flank milling ruled surface with a conical cutter based on normal mapping, while at the same time keeping this couples within the given bounded constraints. For given initial pairs of taper tool and tool pat...
