18、 by pipe-routing software.n 当一个设计确定以后,生产才能开始。计算机在生产的许多方面扮演着重要的角色。数控机床需要一个零件加工程序来确定加工的部件;计算机技术的出现提供了辅助,在多数情况下,零件加工程序事实上是自动生成的。现代造船业从大型钢板上剪下焊接钢板构造结构。计算机控制火焰切割机常用来完成这项任务,且计算机被用来计算最优的零部件外形使得材料的浪费达到最小。数控弯管机可以通过管道路径软件生产的零件加工程序直接进行操作。n Printed circuit board assembly can also be improved by computer methods
19、.Quality is maintained by computer-controlled automatic test equipment that diagnoses faults in a particular board and rejects拒绝 defective有缺陷的 boards from the assembly line.Computers are used extensively to plot the artwork插图 used to etch蚀刻,凿刻 printed circuit boards and also to produce part programs
20、 for NC drilling machines.n 印刷集成的电路板也可以通过计算机方法进行改进。通过计算机控制的自动检测装备诊断特殊电路板的错误可以保证质量,从装配生产线上淘汰有缺陷的电路板。计算机被广泛应用在绘制蚀化印刷电路板模块和生产数控钻床零件加工程序。n One of the most important manufacturing function is stock and production control.If the original design is done on a computer,obtaining lists of material requirement

22、 which use computers to assist the work of process planners.The levels of assistance depend on the different strategies employed to implement the system.Lower level strategies only use computers for storage and retrieval of the data for the process plans which will be constructed manually by process
23、 planners,as well as for supplying the data which will be used in the planners new work.In comparison with lower level strategies,higher level strategies use computers to automatically generate process plans for some work pieces of simple geometrical shapes.n CAPP被定义为使用计算机辅助工艺员的工作。辅助的程度依赖于执行在此系统上的不同
24、策略。低等级的策略只是通过计算机完成存储和修复工艺流程数据,这些工艺流程可以由工艺员手工构建并为工艺员的新任务提供数据。相比于低等级策略,高等级策略是使用计算机自动为一些简单几何形状的工件生成工艺流程。n Sometimes a process planner is required to input the data needed or to modify plans which do not fit specific production requirements well.The highest level strategy,which is the ultimate goal of C
25、APP,generates process plans by computer,which may replace process planners,when the knowledge and expertise of process planning and working experience have been incorporated into the computer programs.The database in a CAPP system based on the highest level strategy will be directly integrated with
26、conjunctive systems,e.g.CAD and CAM.CAPP has been recognized as playing a key role in CIMS(Computer integrated manufacturing system).n 有时工艺员需要输入需要的数据或者修改不能很好的适合特殊生产的工艺流程。高级策略的目标是CAPP的最高目标,当工艺知识、专门技术和工作经验被融合进计算机程序中时,计算机也许会取代工艺员去完成生产工艺流程。基于最高等级策略的CAPP系统中的数据库将被直接集成在相关系统。如CAD和CAM。CAPP被认为是CIMS(计算机集成制造系统)
27、的关键角色。nMore than 20 years have elapsed since the use of computers to assist process planning tasks was first proposed.Tremendous efforts have been made in the development of CAPP systems.For the time being,the research interests for development of CAPP systems are focused on intelligent and integrat
28、ed process planning systems.For increasing the intelligence of CAPP systems,some new concepts,such as neural networks,fuzzy logic,and machine learning have been explored for the new generation of CAPP systems.For increasing the integrability of CAPP system,feature based design,the roles of features,
29、integrating process planning with scheduling,and integrating process planning with manufacturing resources planning have been focused on.This phenomenon is entitled concurrent or simultaneous engineering.n 从首次提出用计算机来辅助工艺流程任务以来已过去了20多年。人们为CAPP的发展作了极大的努力。随着时间的推移,研究CAPP系统的意义集中在智能化和集成工艺流程系统上。为提高CAPP系统的智
30、能化程度,一些新概念,如神经网络,模糊逻辑学和机器示教在新生代CAPP系统中被探索开发。为增加CAPP系统的可积性,设计开发的焦点集中于设计中的典型特征、典型特征的功能、工艺过程和行程安排一体化,并集成了制造原材料计划的工艺流程。该现象能够与工程同时产生。nSince a process plan determines the methods,machines,sequences,fixturing,and tools required in the fabrication and assembly of components,it is easy to see that process pl
31、anning is one of the basic tasks to be performed in manufacturing systems.The task of carrying out the difficult and detailed process plans has traditionally been done by workers with a vast knowledge and understanding of the manufacturing process.Many of these skilled workers,now considered process
32、 planners,are either retired or close to retirement,with no qualified young process planners to take their place.An increasing shortage of process planners has been created.With the high pressure of serious competition in the world market,integrated production has been pursued as a way for companies
33、 to survive and succeed.Automated process planning systems have been recognized as playing a key role in CIMS.It is for reasons such as these that many companies look for computer aided process systems.n 因为工艺流程决定了在制造和装配零件时所需的方法、机器、顺序、工装和刀具,容易看出编制工艺流程是制造系统要执行的基本任务之一。传统上的推行任务的困难和详细工艺规程的制定由精通制造工艺的操作工人来解决。许多熟练的工人,现在被认为是工艺员,已经或接近退休,然而却没有年轻有资格的工艺员来接替他们的位置。工艺员的短缺逐渐增加。随着世界市场竞争压力的加大,追求合作化的集成产品将幸存下来并取得成功。自动化的工艺流程系统已被看作是CIMS中至关重要的部分。这就是许多公司关注计算机辅助工艺设计的原因。
