Abstract

This paper describes a low cost Expert System (ES) framework for design of deep drawing die and procedure for developing system modules. The task of building the system is structured into different modules for major activities of the design of deep drawing die. A manufacturability assessment module of the proposed framework is developed to check the manufacturability of deep drawn parts. Effectiveness of the proposed manufacturability module is demonstrated by taking industrial part as an example. The technological knowledge is represented by using IF- THEN rules and it is coded in AutoLISP language. The module is designed to be loaded into the prompt area of AutoCAD. The cost of implementation of the proposed system makes it affordable for small and medium scale sheet metal industries.
