INTELLIGENT SYSTEM FOR PLASTIC INJECTION-MOLDING PROCESS DESIGN

An ill System for obtaining the magnitude of process parameters in pla stic injection molding operation has been developed, The system is use r interactive and can be used at shop floor. This system applies two t echniques, Rule-Based and Cast-Based Reasoning, Case-Based Reasoning i s used to derive the first trial setting of processing parameters, whi le the Rule-Based sub-system suggests a set of corrective actions to d eal with possible corresponding variations in molding, The system redu ces optimization time and human expert dependency.
