Choosing appropriate manufacturing processes to create functional surfaces is a challenging issue for some industrials. A specific surface finish can be obtained by different manufacturing processes, each of them having a different economic impact. Currently, no tool could guarantee the surface function through the choice of a manufacturing process and its associated operating parameters. This paper aims at discussing about a framework of models for selecting conventional or innovative manufacturing processes and their associated parameters with regards to surface topographies and textures. To achieve this, a concept of decomposition of database is introduced. Manufacturing processes such as, electro discharge machining, water jet machining (used for texturing surfaces), sandblasting and laser cladding are modelled. Finally, a concept that links such a database with computer aided design (CAD) software in order to integrate surfaces functionalities and manufacturing processes directly into the design step is discussed.

The vision of fully automated manufacturing processes was conceived when computers were first used to control industrial equipment. But realizing this goal has not been easy; the difficulties of generating manufacturing information directly from computer aided design (CAD) data continued to challenge researchers for over 25 years. Although the extraction of coordinate geometry has always been straightforward, identifying the semantic structures (i.e., features) needed for reasoning about a component’s function and manufacturability has proved much more difficult. Consequently the programming of computer controlled manufacturing processes such as milling, cutting, turning and even the various lamination systems (e.g., SLA, SLS) has remained largely computer aided rather than entirely automated. This paper summarizes generic difficulties inherent in the development of feature based CAD/CAM (computer aided manufacturing) interfaces and presents two alternative perspectives on developments in manufacturing integration research that have occurred over the last 25 years. The first perspective presents developments in terms of technology drivers including progress in computational algorithms, enhanced design environments and faster computers. The second perspective describes challenges that arise in specific manufacturing applications including multiaxis machining, laminates, and sheet metal parts. The paper concludes by identifying possible directions for future research in this area.

Abstract Thermal manufacturing processes are typically those in which a material is subjected to a temporal thermal cycle like casting, extrusion and heat treatment of metals and plastics. The complexity of the design process for all these systems stems from the need to simulate complicated heat transfer, fluid flow and phase change phenomena and couple the results with the design rules and knowledge available on the manufacturing processes to obtain satisfactory designs. In this regard, the ability of expert systems to use heuristic reasoning has proved to be a powerful tool in the computer-aided-design of thermal manufacturing systems. In this paper, the salient features of a knowledge-based system developed for the design of ingot casting process has been outlined. A Prolog based decision making front-end is interfaced with a Fortran based computational engine for rapid design. The results from the heat transfer analysis obtained from the computational module, are coupled to the evaluation module, which checks for satisfaction of the design criteria and violation of the design constraints. The decision making module uses a set of design rules to manipulate the variables until the design specifications are satisfied. Modularity and flexibility are maintained using an object-oriented format. Several interesting design acceleration features like learning from simple mathematical models and design extraction from previous designs are illustrated. The main features of this knowledge-based tool and the savings in time resulting from using these special features are discussed in detail.
