A new technique for exchange data between Computer-Aided Design/Manufacturing (CAD/CAM) systems has been presented in this work. Where, a program designed using MATLAB environment has been developed to transfer these geometrical data and a technique to transfer geometrical curves to full descriptive surfaces using the UGS software as a CAM tool without any loss in their geometrical shape information also has been demonstrated, therefore the matrix of nth degree of the Bezier curves and B-spline curves and surfaces generation had been examined to use it in this work as an analyzed case to examine the suggested method and program script. It has been noticed through the implementation of the developed script and the simulation phase using the UGS system that this script can be applied to transform any free form surface profile shape from CAD module to CAM module without missing any kind of geometrical information in the final geometry of the profile, subsequently G-code for any free form geometry can be obtained. The current technique aligns conformity with the experimental result.
