Sažetak	CNC tool path generation is the computational process of determining the precise sequence and trajectory of tool movements required to machine a workpiece on computer numerical control (CNC) machines. Developed from the intersection of numerical control automation and computational geometry in the 1990s, this method translates CAD designs into executable machine instructions, enabling efficient and accurate manufacturing of complex parts.	Additive manufacturing slicing is the computational process of converting a three-dimensional CAD model into a series of two-dimensional cross-sectional layers that are sequentially built up by 3D printing hardware. Developed during the early maturation of stereolithography and selective laser sintering in the 1990s, this method bridges the gap between digital design and physical fabrication, enabling rapid prototyping and production of complex geometries.
