Abstract

This paper presents the decision support system using fuzzy knowledge to adapt the cutting conditions chosen by a conventional expert system to a particular machine tool, workpiece and clamping system. These preliminary results demonstrate the capability of fuzzy logic to adjust cutting parameters taking into account parameters difficult to quantify.
