Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a method and system for generating a path to be traced by a cutting tool in a milling cut situation. SOLUTION: A new shape concept called a 'focal area' suitable for a milling cut situation is used so that a fixed contact with materials to be cut can be held by a cutting tool, and that a tool path minimizing the abrasion of the tool and an impact load can be generated. Moreover, the tool path is optimized so that the short path can traced, and the cutting time can be shortened. This tool path generator is suitable especially for a high speed slice cutting application.
