Abstract
The first and most important step in the product realization process is making a process plan. The quality of a product and the cost of producing it are strongly influenced by the process plan. In the modern manufacturing systems, it is imperative to have a dynamic plan generation system as an interface between design and manufacturing functions. This led to the development of computer-aided process planning. However, no single algorithm can model the complexity of the thinking process of an experienced human planner. This makes it an ideal candidate for an artificial intelligence application. This research is an effort to develop an expert system for the computer-aided process planning of rotational parts.
