AUTOMATED IDENTIFICATION OF COOLING HOLES AND TOOLPATH GENERATION

摘要

A method of processing a part includes: identifying (2502) a location of at least one hole (62) disposed in the part using a computer-aided design (CAD) model of the part (36); aligning (2504) the part in a mounting system (56); 3D-scanning (2506) the part (36); detecting (2520) at least one boundary feature of the hole (36) based at least partially on at least one datum from 3D-scanning (2506) the part; and generating (2536) a first toolpath (92) based at least partially on the boundary feature.
