Titanium alloys have outstanding mechanical properties such as high hardness, a good strength-to-weight ratio, excellent fatigue properties and high corrosion resistance. However, several inherent properties including their low thermal conductivity and high chemical affinity to …

Using a constant scallop height tool-path planning procedure enables the manufacturer to produce a sculptured surface using a ball-end mill with a prescribed surface quality; i.e., a constant scallop height throughout the surface. Moreover, it gives the manufacturer a way to beg…
