Principles of computer process planning
Abstract
An analytic framework for process planning activity has been formulated and incorporated as the basis of a generative computer process planning system. The system uses full geometric design data and produces, under interactive control, detailed operation sheets with dimensioned workpiece drawings. The major elements of the system technology are process decision models, machining analysis and optimization models, a special process planning language, and man-machine communication by interactive graphics.
