Application of a Case-Based Process Expert System for NC Camshaft Grinding

Abstract:

In order to solve the problem that selecting process parameters is difficult and inefficient in NC camshaft grinding, a case-based process expert system is presented, which takes frame method to present cases and utilizes case-based reasoning as the core mechanism of system. One of the typical cases of NC camshaft grinding which are stored in the case base of expert system is composed of three parts including description, solution and evaluation. The expert system generates a new case description according to the characteristics of camshaft to be processed, then forms an evaluation parameter from the similarity and the confidence. In the end, process intelligent matching is obtained by applying the system.
