Abstract
The invention relates to a method () for determining an optimised trajectory for a non-productive movement of a tool () of a machine tool, from a starting position () to an end position (). The non-productive movement is carried out in a spatially restricted travelling area () which is represented by geometric conditions. The method according to the invention is executed with the avoidance of collisions and comprises the step of determining a first trajectory () of the tool () by means of a travel-finding algorithm. In this step, the first trajectory () is optimised for the non-productive movement with respect to at least one selectable target parameter.
