Manufacturing feature identification

  • Chapter
Artificial Neural Networks for Intelligent Manufacturing

Part of the book series: Intelligent Manufacturing Series ((IMS))

Abstract

Integration of CAD/CAM involves the use of a design description, design database model and applications while ensuring data consistency. The data types needed in a variety of applications may be different from the data type stored in a design database. In order to automate the CAD/CAM process, computer understanding of the meta-knowledge in the database or description and automatic data conversion to the next analysis stage are necessary (Woodwark, 1988).
