Multi-tasking machine tool has a variety of machining functions, which may lead to the reduction in machining time and the machining with high quality, and they have the growing availability. On the other hand, the use of multi-tasking machine tool causes the long process planning due to the functional complexity. There are some CAM systems for multi-tasking machine tool, however they need long working time caused by the mannual allocation of parts to generate tool paths. Therefore, the study proposes the rationalization of the process planning by extracting the machining feature in consideratinf with turning and milling from targeted shape to be machined and by selecting suitable machining method and scheduling machining order automatically. As a result, it is expected to reduce the working time on CAM system, using output data by proposed system. Applying the system to several product shapes containig both turning feature and milling feature, it is confirmmed that NC data can be obtained for each shape without any problem.
