MANUFACTURING WITH CNC IS A CLASSIC CASE TO BE SOLVED BY AN EXPERT SYSTEM. AN INTELLIGENT ANALYZER WAS DEVELOPED THAT CAN ANALYZE 2-D DRAWING TO AUTOMATICALLY CREATE A 3-D SOLID, AND TO DECIDE WHAT MACHINE TASKS ARE NEEDED TO CREATE THE PART. A NEW LANGUAGE AND COMPILER WERE DEVELOPED TO ENABLE THE FOREMAN TO EXPRESS THE RULES FOR THE EXPERT SYSTEM. USING THOSE RULES, THE SYSTEM SEARCHES FOR A SET OF TECHNICAL PARAMETER LIBRARIES (TOOL LIBRARY, HOLDER LIBRARY, MATERIAL LIBRARY, TASK LIBRARY, ETC.) TO FIND THE OPTIMAL SET OF PARAMETERS NEEDED TO CUT A SPECIFIC PART. THIS FULL-BLOWN COMBINED SYSTEM WAS INTEGRATED INTO STATE-OF-THE-ART CAD/CAM SYSTEM, AND IT CAN GENERATE AUTOMATICALLY CNC PART PROGRAM DIRECTLY FROM A 2-D DRAWING.
