The Natioinal SShipbuilding Research Program, Proceedings of the REAPS Technical Symposium, Paper No. 26: Computer Assisted Process Planning: A First Step Toward Integration
Abstract
Computer assisted process planning can be a first step toward the integrated use of computers in the design and manufacturing process to improve productivity in batch manufacturing. The key to the process of integration is a part feature recognition method to analyze and retrieve manufacturing processes and arrive at least-cost designs consistently linked to "best" manufacturing processes. Major problems are incompatible computers, software; and people.
