Manufacturing of Ni- and/or Ti-Blisks – First steps towards autonomous and self-optimized CAM planning
Which optimization algorithms are suitable for optimizing NC programs for blisk finish machining?
Challenge and Motivation
- Given a target geometry and a machine, the goal is to design the best possible process.
- CAM parameters influence part quality non-trivially.
- Global/local process optima are often unknown.
Objective
- Automatic CAM optimization of KPIs, i.e. cycle time, part quality, force limits, etc.
- Investigate different optimization algorithms for blisk machining during process planning.
