| Summary: | This project deals with development of a cutting tools and machining parameter
selection system for milling processes and named TnP system. The developed system
has been divided into six modules. The first and second modules are concerned with
blank and machine selection. The third module deals with feature descriptions with
some basic dimensioning functioned as input to automate operation selection in the
fourth module. The fifth and sixth modules are regarding the cutting tools selection,
cutting parameters selection and generation of process plan sheet.
The whole system is developed by using Visual Basic.net as Graphical User Interface
(GUI) and Structure Query Language server (SQL server) as supporting data storage
and retrieval system. The integration of user interface and database has been
implemented using program coding written in Visual Basic.The specialty of the developed system is that it automates the selection of cutting
tools and cutting conditions of milling operations. In addition, the user or process
planner is able to modify and enhance the generated result from the system to meet
their individual requirements. A test run has been included to demonstrate the
potential and application of the developed system. |
