Design and Manufacturing Process for Artificial Joint

Throughput for Steel Pipes Manufacturing Process Design

To increase productivity, new automatic production lines are introduced driven by adequate computer hardware and software. While determining production process characteristics for building complex product such as steel vessel, special consideration is given to dimensioning and defining capacity of production equipment and working places. Process characteristics should accomplish building and ou...

Computer-aided design for manufacturing process selection

This paper describes an expert system that helps designers select a manufacturing process in the early stage of product design. First, the paper focuses on net-shape manufacturing processes and identifies the major factors that affect the selection of an appropriate process. Examples of these factors include shape, production volume, and material. A versatile methodology should consider all the...

Intelligent Knowledge Based System Approach for Optimization of Design and Manufacturing Process for Wire-Electrical Discharge Machining

Wire electrical discharge machining (WEDM) is a method to cut conductive materials with a thin electrode that follows a programmed path. The electrode is a thin wire. Typical diameters range from .004" - .012" (.10mm - .30mm) although smaller and larger diameters are available. WEDM is a thermal machining process capable of accurately machining parts with varying hardness or complex shapes. WED...
