Constant Scallop Height Tool Paths and Geodesic Parallels

일정 스켈럽 높이 공구경로와 축지평행선의 관계

We introduce a novel approach for generating constant scallop height tool paths. We derive a Riemannian metric tensor from curvature tensors of a part surface and a tool surface. Then, we construct geodesic parallels from the newly constructed metric. Those geodesic parallels constitute an asymptotically-correct family of constant scallop height tool paths.
