Key Technology Analysis for Machining Process Optimization and Automation

Agent Technology and Process Automation

Application of agent technology to design and implementation of process automation systems has been proposed by some researchers. The purpose of this paper is to review current knowledge of this issue. The starting point of the study is the functional requirements of a process automation system. The requirements are compared with the models of agent systems, including multi-agent communication ...

Process Optimization for Machining of Hardened Steels

Designing Tolerance Chart and Process for CNC Machining Parts

The map and the model designed by a designer and presented to a manufacturer in the form of a map is the result of his knowledge and innovation. The manufacturer, in turn, uses his best effort to produce a part accordingly. However, because of production problems and raw material, producing a precise part is very difficult and costly. One of the most important problems in this regard is designi...

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...
