SUMMARY

This paper reports on the design and implementation of a Computer Assisted Process Planning System (PRICAPP) for prismatic components used in the batch production of portable electric tools. The software incorporates various modules for component feature representation; automatic machines, toolings and process parameter selection; set-up planning; time calculation and finally report generation.

The user friendly software package has been developed on an IBM-PC/XT compatible system. It provides a quick and less costly method for generating consistent process plans.
