Abstract
Concurrent design and manufacturing attempts to consider all aspects o f the product during the early stage of design to avoid the costly and time consuming downstream traditional design and manufacturing proces ses. Process planning links design and manufacturing. This paper discu sses the roles of manufacturing process planning in a concurrent engin eering environment ind the research on the development of prototype fe ature-based automated process planning (FBAPP) system for concurrent d esign and manufacturing.
