A study on Development of Expert System for Process and Die design of Hot Extrusion through Square Dies

This study presents development of an expert system for process and die design of hot extrusion through square dies. The design of extrusion dies is still an art rathere than a science with increasing complexity of shape and thinness of section. Therefore, most of the die design is still dependent on personal judgement, intuition and experience. The objective of this study is to develop an expert system which includes a rule base system extracted from literatures and experts in the extrusion industry. The system also includes finite element simulation program. The developed system is effectively used to design two types of processes and dies with lead time and trial extrusion.
