Abstract

The expanding of the aeronautics business represents a challenge in aero engine manufacturing because of demanding productivity and quality of manufacturing increase. This research presents a tool path utilizing CATIA V5 for aerospace single blade. Five axis machining is widely used in machining of complex surfaces. Raw material used aluminium 6061 as this material is typically use in manufacturing aircraft components. DMG DMU 60 monoBLOCK which is one computer numerical control (CNC) machines is use in this research. Generally, the main machining strategy applied was multi-axis helix machining. IMS post processor to convert APT file into .H file. Meanwhile the way to troubleshoot was further discussed in detail this research. To analysis result, Coordinate Measuring Machine (CMM) is use to measure the dimensional accuracy by physical and directly probing method. The results were further discussed with few possible factors that contributed to result accuracy. Few possible factors mention in this research were strongly believed due to relate with rigidity of work piece and vibration during machining process.
