Duc LURPA – Ecole Normale Superieure de Cachan, Cachan, France The machining of sculptured surfaces such as moulds and dies conforming to the required geometrical specifications of form in 3-axis milling relies on the chordal deviation, the scallop deviation and surface roughness [1]. For a given part, the use height parameter and the planning strategy. The choice of these of high-speed milling (HSM) makes it possible to increase the parameters must ensure that manufacturing surfaces respect the number of tool paths, and therefore to reduce the scallop geometrical specifications. The current strategies for machin- height, without increasing machining time [2]. However, the ing, consist primarily in driving the tool in parallel planes current strategies for machining consist primarily in driving which generates a tightening of the tool paths. A constant the tool in parallel planes, which does not optimise the rate scallop height planning strategy has been developed to avoid of material removal. Along a tool path, the variations of the this tightening. In this paper, we present a new
