A method for automated manufacturing strategy generation can include: identifying features of a desired part from a virtual model; and determining a tactic strategy based on the identified features. The method can additionally include: determining a toolpath primitive for each tactic; combining the toolpath primitives for the tactics to generate a master toolpath; and translating the master toolpath into machine code.

The present invention discloses a real-time kernel of open CNC systems and a real-time control method of tool-paths. The real-time kernel translates a real-time control of the tool-paths into sending synchronous pulses into the servo drivers in accordance with the control rhythms t.sub.i (i=1, . . . , n) in the follow-table and achieves the openness of real-time control method and real-time control process. The real-time kernel has the most simple and reliable multi-axis synchronization capability with high-speed and high-precision, and leads to major changes in the field of digital control method. The real-time kernel no need to configure a real-time operating system and a fieldbus, its core function is only to write the control rhythm into the T-division timer, and to send linkage commands into the servo drivers designated by the state-word, therefore its function and architecture are extremely simple and high reliability.
