| Summary: | Today, the time to market for metal casting
products is becoming shorter, thus the lead
time available for making the wax injection
mould is decreasing. There is potential for
timesaving in the mould design stage. This
paper presents the basic structure of an
interactive knowledge based wax injection
mould design system. The basic of this
system arises from an analysis of the wax
injection mould design process for mould
design companies. This wax injection
mould design system covers both the mould
design process and mould base
standardization. In this system, the graphic
module and the knowledge based module for
generating mould features are integrated
within an interactive Mold Wizard platform,
Unigraphics system. This ensures that both
speeds up the wax injection mould design
process, without the need to redesign the
mould base layout. With this capability,
metal casting product could be designed
quickly, cheaply with quality and
competitively. |
