Abstract
A method and a corresponding system and computer program are provided. A model of an object to be manufactured via subtractive manufacturing is obtained. Geometric features to be machined as part of manufacturing the object are identified based on the model. The identified geometric features include a composite geometric feature including a plurality of geometric subfeatures. A database including strategies for machining different geometric features is accessed. The database includes a composite strategy for machining the composite geometric feature and separate strategies for machining the respective geometric subfeatures. Strategies for machining the respective geometric features are selected from the strategies included in the database. Instructions for causing one or more machine tools to manufacture the object in accordance with the selected strategies are provided. Selecting strategies for machining the respective geometric features via subtractive manufacturing includes selecting the composite strategy for machining the composite geometric feature.
