Abstract: The design of the automated fiber placement trajectory is the key to control the quality of the trajectory laying process. In order to further improve the laying quality of complex rotary surface,a multi-objective trajectory planning algorithm, which takes the centroid curve of the similar rotating component as the reference line and considers the laying angle, trajectory spacing and trajectory curvature comprehensively, was proposed. The reference trajectory, which meets the process requirements such as the width and the number of the tows, is designed. The other trajectories are designed by locally adjusting the offset trajectory and globally optimizing. Finally, the CATIA secondary development technology is used to realize the software of trajectory planning for complex rotary surface on Visual Studio 2010 platform. It is verified on the complex rotary surface and proves the effectiveness of the algorithm.
