Feedrate Fluctuation Minimization for NURBS Tool Path Interpolation Based on Arc Length Compensation and Iteration by Xing Liu, Pengxin Yu, Haiduo Chen, Bihui Peng, Zhao Wang, Fusheng Liang

“…In the interpolation cycle, the position of the next interpolation point is required to be calculated in real-time to guide the action of the machining process. Due to the existence of the positioning error of the interpolation point, it is extremely difficult to eliminate the feedrate fluctuation, which may lead to dramatic decreases in machining quality and the driving capabilities’ saturation of each axis. …”

Mathematical simulation of the processes of two-beam laser controlled thermal-splitting of quartz glass by V. A. Emelyanov, E. B. Shershnev, S. I. Sokolov, A. N. Kupo

“…The simulation results show that with a bi-beam effect, the micromechanical stresses necessary for the formation of a microcrack are realized in shorter time intervals, both on the surface and in the depth of the material, which allows increasing the processing speed by up to 30 %. Strengthening control over the process of controlled thermal cracking can significantly reduce the percentage of defects and improve the quality of the resulting microeletronics products.…”
