Abstract

This invention relates to the field of gas turbine blade machining technology, and discloses a CNC programming method and apparatus for roughing and semi-finishing blade flow passage surfaces. The method involves creating a preliminary ISO format program using machining programming software to perform roughing or semi-finishing of the blade flow passage surface using machining tools. Then, reverse calculation is performed to obtain a CLS toolpath source file usable by the machining software. This toolpath source file is then imported into the machining software, and after conversion, a machining program usable for blade flow passage surface machining equipment is output, enabling the use of general-purpose machining tools for roughing / semi-finishing blade flow passage surfaces. In particular, the use of general-purpose insert-type round nose cutters in programming machining replaces the original ball end mill machining strategy, significantly improving tool feed rate and machining efficiency. Furthermore, this tool has low cost, reducing machining costs and enabling rapid machining of rotor and stator blade flow passage surfaces.
