Abstract

Summary: A method to Systematically map part geometry and material requirements onto sequences of processes and compatible materials is described. The geometrical and material constraints of the design are input information for the system. The system produces a list of practical processing sequences and material combinations. The sequences are ranked according to the difficulty of manufacturing the Dart with particular processes selected and how well a material meets the material requirements for the part. © 1992 CIRP.
