This invention, a feedrate scheduling method for five-axis dual-spline curve interpolation, belongs to multi-axis NC (Numerical Control) machining filed, featured a feedrate scheduling method with constant speed at feedrate-sensitive regions under axial drive constraints for five-axis dual-spline interpolation. This method first discretizes the tool-tip spline with equal arc length, thus getting the relation between the axial motion and the toolpath by computing the first, second, and third order derivatives of the axial positions with respect to the tool-tip motion arc length. After that, determine the feedrate-sensitive regions with the constraints of axial drive limitations and the objective of balanced machining quality and efficiency. Finally, determine the acceleration/deceleration-start-point curve parameters by bi-directional scanning. The invented method can effectively make a balance between the feed motion stability and efficiency in five-axis machining, and possesses a high computational efficiency and a good real-time capability.

A controller performs high-accuracy oscillation control in which an axis driven by a motor is rocked in accordance with the rotation of a spindle motor for driving a main spindle. This controller determines a reference speed of rocking motion based on a reference speed set in advance, a reference main spindle rotational speed of the spindle motor, and an actual main spindle rotational speed, and calculates a rocking motion speed for each control period based on the determined reference speed of the rocking motion. The calculated rocking motion speed for each control period is added to a command outputted by the controller for controlling the position of the motor for each control period.
