Computer-Aided Production Control of Automobile Injection Molds based on Process Perception

摘要

This paper focuses on major issues in production process control of automobile injection molds based on process perception, such as manufacture resource perception, exchange in three-dimensional model (3D), production planning and scheduling, manufacture process planning (tool path and assembly sequence). After a survey of them, we propose a method for the construction of computer-aided production process control platform. 1) Define the networked manufacture semantic/data model and an encapsulating approach to efficiently manipulate manufacturing resources. 2) Develop structural multi-view data models for the design information of automobile molds transferring in 3D. 3) Propose a production planning and scheduling arithmetic. 4) Develop a variation accumulation model for manufacturing process control. 5) Integrate the tool path and assembly sequence planning of injection molds by using a variation accumulation model. 6) Integrate the existing and/or developed models to the new system. Finally we introduce a validation method and discuss the prospect to the accurate control of production process.
