Abstract
Three-dimensional CAD/CAM systems are generally used in manufacturing forging molds and dies for automotive crankshafts. Although the conventional process dependent on wooden models has been gradually replaced to some extent by an NC process with still expensive cost, another advanced process then become required for 3D modeling and verification of NC data since it still greatly depends on the skilled operator’s experience.
In this study, examples of an automated CAD system for three-dimensional surface modeling with a rule-based modeling process are introduced. This uses intelligent CAD construction tools in crankshaft forgings and dies.
