  • Metal stamping is widely used in the mass-production process of the automobile. During the stamping process, air may be trapped between the draw die and the panel and/or between the punch and the panel. Air pocket rapidly not only increases forming load in the final stage, but also deforms the product just formed by compressive air inside the air pocket in knockout process. To prevent these problems air bent holes are drilled in the die to exhaust the trapped air but all processes associated with air bent holes are performed by empirical know-how of workers in the field due to lack of researches. Therefore this study developed an automated design system for predicting the shape and position, and volume of air pocket on the draw die by using the AutoLISP language under AutoCAD circumstance. The system is able to display the shape of air pocket occurred in the draw die and to calculate automatically its volume by strokes. So it makes a stepping stone to calculate theoretical size of an air bent hole and numbers according to it by predicting and analyzing the position and volume of air pocket. Results obtained from the system enable the designers or manufacturers of the stamping die to be more efficient in this field.

  • Nowadays, it is convenient to use 3D modeling tools for general planning before construction. Normally, a 3D model is built with 3D CAD such as 3D Studio Max, Maya, etc. or simply with AutoCAD. All these software packages are effective in building 3D models but difficult to use, because many provided functions and tools require prior knowledge to build both 2D and 3D designs. Moreover, the traditional method of building 3D models is most time-consuming as experienced operators and manual input are required. Therefore, how to minimize the building time of 3D models and provide easy-to-use functions for users who are not familiar with 3D modeling becomes important. In this paper, the VisualLISP programming language is used to create a convenient tool for efficient generation of 3D components for the AutoCAD environment. This tool will be demonstrated with the generation of a 3D sluice, an artificial passage for water fitted with a valve or gate to stop or regulate water flow. With the tool, users only need to enter the parameters of a sluice in the edit box and the 3D model will be automatically generated in a few seconds. By changing parameters in the edit box and pressing the "OK" button, a new 3D sluice model will be generated in a short while.

  • This study deals with roughing planning by cross sectional information generated from sculptured surfaces. Bicubic Bezier surface is adopted as sculptured surfaces in this paper. The system consists of 3 pstyd : 1) modeling sculptured surface, 2) reconstruction of cross-section in 2D coordinates, 3) determination of roughing tool path with structural data. The system is developed by using BIM-PC in the environment of Auto CAD R11, AutoLISP and MetaWare C. The proposed system shows an efficient algorithm for roughing planning with cross sectional information.

  • The manual procedure of drafting engineering design is fast becoming obsolete. One of the important areas in CAPP is to automate tolerance assignment which is encountered in mechanical part design. This paper presents an approach for automating tolerance assignment using CAD database and tolerancing database in CAD drawing. The system is consisted of four major functions feasture extraction, feaure inferencing, rule-based tolerance allocation, and automatic upating. Auto CAD R.II is employed as CAD system and a computer progran is developed by using Auto LISP on PC-386.

  • Recently industry has moved towards automated operations with the goal of achieving better product quality greater productivity and reliability The pump design in characterized by extensive utilization of the related database which contains performance data. The inputs to the system are through interactive dialogue sessions and the basic input consist of flow rate, head, of fluid efficiency and the customer special requirements. These basic inputs along with the numerous rules in the knowledge bases and the mathematical modeling enable the effective design of the pump industry This paper represents the development of an automatic pump design system that was composed of a main program the data input module the drawing module the drawing edit module and was programed by the AutoLISP language under the Auto CAD program The developed system ultimately generates the design for a pump through the AutoCAD language.

  • In this paper, we have been concerned with development of plastic mold design system by using Auto CAD. We provides a interface and interaction for mold designer who can select optimal mold base and mold parts within Auto CAD environment. We use the paramatric design method and an essential elements group forms. This program made for using Visual Lisp, DCL and Visual Basic that could easily get a database which is built to mold base and parts within Auto CAD. We provide 6 types mold base and 35 parts database for designer. In addition, it will be lined to mold cost and not only 2-D but also 3-D models

  • Distributed operation of overall structural design process, by which product optimization and process parallelization are simultaneously implemented, is presented in this paper. The database-interacted hybrid method, which selectively takes the accustomed procedure of the conventional method in the framework of the optimal design, is utilized here. The staged application of design constraints reduces the computational burden for large complex optimization problems. Two kinds of numeric and graphic processes are simultaneously implemented by concurrent engineering approach in the distributed environment of PC networks. The former is based on finite element optimization method and the latter is represented by AutoCAD using AutoLISP programming language. Numerical computation and database interaction on servers and graphic works on independent clients are communicated through message passing. The numerical experiments for some steel truss models show the validity and usability of the method. This study has sufficient adaptability and expandability, in that it is based on general methodologies and industry standard platforms.

  • Design of drawing dies was used In real industrial environments. It was designed by CAD software in many small & medium companies, but many products require various types, and sizes. There(ore many companies are required to reduce process time and design mistakes. In this paper, it was developed the automatic program in order to learn and use easily for design of the drawing dies. It was composed with Visual LISP/DCL language in a commercial CAD package, AutoCAD, and CUI in design system. The system is based in the knowledge base system which is involved a lot of expert's know-how. We have built database of design type and detail sizes. The automatic design system requires basic product type and sizes, and then the system accesses to the database and finds out sizes by comparing with input parameters, after then finally generates drawing dies file.
