Abstract The application of B-spline functions in the domain of machine-tool control can be efficient only if it is possible to simultaneously control the shape of a contour and the speed along this contour. The paper describes a method allowing us to control the speed of a tool moving along a contour defined by an uniform cubic B-spline. This method is based upon the discretization of the B-spline parameter with respect to both a given geometrical error at to the desired speed law.
