  title = {Time-optimized hole sequence planning for 5-axis on-the-fly laser drilling},
  abstract = {<p>On-the-fly laser drilling requires the use of acceleration continuous trajectories, which are typically planned using time parameterized spline functions. In this operation, the choice of hole drilling sequence, and positioning timings in between the holes, play a critical role in determining the achievable cycle time. This paper presents a new algorithm for sequencing 5-axis on-the-fly laser drilling hole locations and timings. The algorithm considers machine tool and process constraints, as well as the temporal nature of the final commanded spline trajectory. The achievable productivity and motion smoothness improvement are demonstrated in the production of a gas turbine combustion chamber panel.</p>
