The invention discloses a
cutting optimization method based on circular cutter compensation. The
cutting optimization method comprises the steps: obtaining the
radius r of a circular cutter; obtaininga to-be-optimized
cutting contour from the PLT file, the cutting contour comprising a plurality of contour points, and a connection line between two adjacent contour points being a
contour line segment; judging the length of each
contour line segment and the length of the
diameter 2r of the circular cutter one by one, and marking the
contour line segment with the length greater than or equal to the length of the
diameter 2r of the circular cutter as a long contour
line segment; otherwise, marking as a short contour
line segment; splitting the cutting contour according to the mark of each contour
line segment in the cutting contour to obtain different types of to-be-optimized segments; and carrying out optimization compensation by adopting a corresponding method according to different types of to-be-optimized fragments, and converting the cutting contour into an optimized contour after circular cutter compensation. According to the method, the cutting contour is optimized according tothe
radius of the circular knife, the over-cutting situation in the cutting process is avoided, the cutting precision is improved, and the optimization efficiency is high.
