A Computer-Based Intelligent System for Automatic Tool Selection

Article Preview

Abstract:

Tool selection is one of the most significant process considerations when deciding how a machined product will be manufactured. The tool selection activity is rooted in feature geometry but it also has a direct impact on machinability and machine tool performance. This paper presents a computer-based intelligent system for the automatic selection of cutting processes and tools. The main objective of the research work was to develop a procedure for the selection of cutting tools and cutting parameters. This will help the designers and manufacturing planners to select an optimal set of cutting tools and cutting conditions for different material properties and to give users alternatives on how to reduce cost and time.
