Manufacturing Process Planning in Set-Based Concurrent Engineering Paradigm

The integration of manufacturing planning activities into early design decisions is paramount. Manufacturing constraints and opportunities should be investigated early in a product development (PD) stages to launch products successfully. Set-based concurrent engineering (SBCE) paradigm is pronounced in literature and believed to form the foundation of lean thinking in PD. In SBCE, alternative p...

Generative System for Manufacturing Process Planning

Process Planning for Shape Deposition Manufacturing

Solid Freeform Fabrication (SFF) refers to a class of rapid manufacturing process that builds parts by incremental material deposition and fusion of thin 2-1/2 dimensional layers. Over this past decade, SFF has taken the manufacturing industry to new heights. However, parts produced by SFF processes exhibit a stair-step surface texture due to the presence of 2-1/2 dimensional layers and exhibit...

Process Planning Optimization in Reconfigurable Manufacturing Systems

There is a time for all things: a time for shouting, a time for gentle speaking, a time for silence, a time for washing pots and a time for writing journal papers and books. It is hard to make a BEGINNING, and will become harder, but IT MUST BE DONE. So be vigilant and vigorous for that will cover a " multitude of sins ". And do not frown. And remember: " Work banishes those three great evils: ...

Semi-generative System for Manufacturing Process Planning

The generative method is a subject of theoretical and experimental research. Difficulties with its implementation are connected with the lack of formal description of the synthesis of activities constituting the manufacturing process. To overcome the difficulties while developing the huge technological knowledge base, a semigenerative method is often used. In this method the pattern is characte...
