Direct Production from CAD Models Considering on Integration with CIM Flexible Production System

Article Preview

Abstract:

Production engineering is currently characterized with continuously changing and expanding, producers have to be flexible in this regard. It means that need to offer production possibilities, which can respond to the quick change. Engineering product development is focused on supporting CAD software; such systems are mainly used for product design. The integration of flexible manufacturing systems and subunits together with product design and of engineering is a possible solution for this issue. Product designers use different types of CAD systems that are incompatible with each other. To enter a new product, it is necessary to transform CAD data and re-enter into the production system used by the manufacturer. The solution is to generate NC data directly from a CAD model and transform the data uploading to control system of flexible manufacturing system. The integration of flexible manufacturing systems and subunits together with product design in CAD and of engineering is a possible solution for this issue. Integration is possible through the implementation of CIM systems. Such an explanation and finding a connection between CAD and production system ICIM 3000 from Festo Co. is engaged in the research project and this contribution.
