Application: Method for generating a tool path for engraving on various shaped surfaces (Patent ID: US20240103486A1)
The patent filed by Raytheon Technologies Corp. describes a computer-implemented method for generating a toolpath for engraving characters on a workpiece surface. The method involves receiving information about the surface shape, area to be engraved, and characters to be engraved, then mapping a pre-stored 2D toolpath of each character onto the surface based on the received information. The toolpath generated can be adaptive, collecting input characters from the CNC machine and adjusting the toolpath accordingly for engraving.
The method allows for engraving letters, numbers, and symbols on non-planar 3D surfaces, following non-straight text lines if needed. The information received can include geometric characteristics of the engraving tool and desired width and spacing of the characters. Additionally, the method can be applied to a series of workpieces with different characters to be engraved. The system described includes a post processor for a CNC machine to generate the toolpath and a CNC machine for executing the engraving process based on the generated toolpath.
