Abstract
A computing device simulates a process of processing an object. The computing device calculates a moving space when a minimum bounding box of a model of a blade moves from a position point to an obtained path point. The computing device cuts a triangulated model of the object when the triangulated model of the object intersects the moving space.

A computing device, comprising:
- at least one processor;
- and
- a storage device that stores one or more programs, which when executed by the at least one processor, cause the at least one processor to:
- generate a model of a blade according to three-dimensional data of the blade stored in the storage device, and generate a model of an object according to three-dimensional data of the object stored in the storage device;
- triangulate the model of the object using a plurality of triangles;
