The study is insufficient on process planning of the elliptical deep drawing product. Thus, in this present study, the expert system for elliptical deep drawing products was constructed by using process sequence design. The expert system was developed to be based on the general concept of each entity. The system was developed in this work consists of sixth modules. The first one is a shape recognition module to recognize non-axisymmetric products and to generate Entity_list. The second one is three dimensional (3-D) modeling module to calculate the surface area for non-axisymmetric products. The third one is a blank design module to create suggested blanks of three shapes with the identical surface area. The fourth one is shape design module based on the production rules that play the most important role in an expert system for manufacturing. The production rules are generated and upgraded by inter- viewing field engineers, plastic theory and experiments. The fifth and sixth ones are a graphic module to visualize results of the expert system and a post module to rise user's convenience, respectively. According to constructed the expert system for process sequence design, it was possible to reduce the lead time.

공정계획(Process planning)이란 소재로 부터 제품을 경제적, 효율적으로생산하는데 필요한 방법의 체계적 인 결정이라고 정의 할수 있다. 일반적으로 공정계획에 관한 지식은 전문가의 오랜 경험을 통해 얻어지므로 공정계획을 수행하기 위해 전문가를 양산하기에는 많은 어려움의 따른다. 그리고 전문가의 지식 및 가공방법 자체가 여러가지 경우의 수를 가지는 불명확한 것이 많으므로 이를 체계적으로 지식 베이스(knosedge base)화 하여 이것을 이용한 자동공정계획시스템의 개발이 필연적이다. 본 연구에서는 절삭가공의 핵심이 되는 밀링가공을 대상으로 하며, AutoCAD 로 부터 자동 또는 대화식으로 부품의 형상 및 치수 데이타를 인식하고, 이 데이타를 기준으로 가공의 지식 베이스와 이론을 접목시켜 개발한 규칙을 통해 공구결정과 가공 표준시간 계산을 수행 하고자 한다. 본 연구에서 사용된 언어는 형상특징인식을 위한 ADS(AutoCAD Deveolpment System)와 객체지향적 언어인 Borland C 이다.

컴퓨터통합생산 시스템의 실현을 위한 중요한 분야의 하나의 부품설계도면으로부터 최종제품을 생산 하는데 필요한 공정계획의 자동화, 즉 컴퓨터지원 자동공정계획(Computer Aided Process Planning ; CAPP) 시스템 기술의 개발이다. 국내외적으로 금형가공 부품을 대상으로 한 CAPP 시스템의 개발은 비교적 저조하므로, 본 연구에서는 사출금형 부품을 대상으로 하여 실용성이 있는 공정계획 전문가시스템 개발을 목적으로 한다. 본 연구에서 금형 공정계획전문가의 경험적 지식을 기반으로 한 사출금형부품의 공정계획 전문가시스템인 MOLDCAPP을 개발하였다. MOLDCAPP 시스템은 도면정보로부터 형상정보를 자동적으로 인식하여 공정계획의 기능 중에서 가동공정, 가공공정 순서, 공작기계 및 절삭공구를 자동적으로 결정한다. 개발된 MOLDCAPP 시스템은 실제 사례연구를 통하여 그 타당성을 분석하였다.

Computer Aided Process Planning (CAPP) plays a key role by linking CAD and CAM. Given CAD data of a part, CAPP has to recognize manufacturing features of the part. Despite the long history of research on feature recognition, its research results have rarely been transferred into industry. One of the reasons lies in the separation of feature recognition and process planning. This paper proposes to integrate the two activities through AI techniques, and presents efforts for manufacturable feature recognition, setup minimization, feature dependency construction, and generation of an optimal machining sequence.

This paper describes the process design for hot forging of bearing hub. Forging processes of bearing hub are simulated using the rigid-plastic finite element method. In the process called closed die forging without flash, the design of blocker geometry is of critical importance. Forging processes designs are take advantage of computer aided Process planning and experts. But that is difficult to predict metal flow line. So the preform is designed by the expert, and modified through predict metal flow line by CAE. This paper is to approach preform design considered defect such as metal flow and unfitting etc. at the finisher process.
