Abstract: | Setup planning plays a crucial role in CAPP to ensure product quality while maintaining acceptable manufacturing cost. The
tasks of setup planning include identifying manufacturing features and corresponding manufacturing processes, determining
the number of setups, part orientation, locating datum and process sequence in each setup, and selecting machine tools and
fixtures. An automated setup planning technique and system has been developed based on not only the tolerance analysis, but
also the manufacturing resource capability analysis. The automated setup planning is divided into two levels: setup planning
in single part level and in machine station level. Algorithms for setup generation and process sequencing have been developed
and a case study of setup planning is presented. |
