ABSTRACT:
An area machining method for efficiently hollowing out an area which contains a part of an outline of a workpiece is disclosed. An outward offset line is set outside the workpiece with a predetermined offset distance. Then a series of offset contours (i.e., the elements of the tool path) are defined within the region between the outward offset line and the final part contour. Since the offset distance to the outward offset line is set zero, all the offset contours share a segment of the outward offset line. Except for this common segment, the offset contours are given a cutting feedrate.
