Abstract
This paper describes the research work involved in developing an automated progressive design system with multiple processes such as piercing, bending, and deep drawing for manufacturing products. This approach to make a progressive, flexible working system is based on knowledge-based rules. The knowledge required for this system is formulated from plasticity theories, experimental results, and the empirical knowledge of field experts. The system consists of three main modules: shape treatment, strip layout, and die layout modules. The system is founded on knowledge-based rules and is designed in consideration of several factors, such as the material and thickness of a product, the piercing, bending and deep drawing sequence, and the complexities of blank geometry and punch profiles. The system then generates the strip layout drawing for an automobile product. The die layout module carries out the die design for each process from the results of the strip layout module. The results obtained using the modules enable the designers of manufacturing products with multiple processes to be more efficient in this field.
