Possibility of a Quick Check on Milling Strategy Suitability

Preliminary notes The area of computer aided manufacturing in the field of chip machining still provides space for improvements in matters of selection of a suitable manufacturing strategy during creation of NC sequences. The paper analyzes current situation in solutions for milling strategies and importance of the selection of a suitable strategy from the viewpoint of several parameters. It also provides information about a newly created software application that presents the tool of computer aid to a milling strategy selection based on the criterion of necessary milling time. It describes functional and programming aspects of the program and offers the results obtained from the realized experiments. It also mentions the possibilities for further development of the application.
