PCT No. PCT/JP84/00522 Sec. 371 Date Jun. 25, 1985 Sec. 102(e) Date Jun. 25, 1985 PCT Filed Oct. 30, 1984 PCT Pub. No. WO85/01908 PCT Pub. Date May 9, 1985.A method of machining performed by back-and-forth cutting, particularly a machining method for automatically creating a pick-feed path that will not cause a tool (TL) to interfere with a workpiece (WK) when a pick-feed is performed, moving the tool along the pick-feed path, and thereafter performing cutting. If the workpiece is concave in the proximity of the pick-feed path, the method includes obtaining an approach plane (AP) containing a machining end point (Pe) and lying parallel to a plane (PL) which contacts a curve (OLC) of the external shape of the workpiece at a next machining starting point Ps. Then a point of intersection Pc between the approach plane (AP) and a straight line (SL) passing through the machining starting point Ps is obtained, with the straight line coinciding with the direction of the central axis of the tool at the machining starting point. The path Pe->Pc->Ps serves as the pick-feed path. If the workpiece is convex in the proximity of the pick-feed path, the method includes obtaining the approach plane (AP) contacting the curve (OLC) of the external shape of the workpiece at the next machining starting point Ps. Then the point of intersection Pc between the approach plane (AP) and a straight line (SL') passing through the machining end point Pe is obtained, with straight line coinciding with the direction of the central axis of the tool at the machining end point. The path Pe->Pc->Ps serves as the pick-feed path.
