Abstract
AbstractMany firms have begun to recognize the promise and potential offered by knowledge‐based systems (KBSs) to their design and manufacturing processes. KBSs incorporate the problem solving heuristics of human experts to solve difficult problems in various problem domains. A knowledge‐based approach is proposed here for the computer‐aided design of injection molded parts. The proposed KBS contains acquired knowledge of mold design alternatives and the assessment criteria for these designs. It employs this knowledge and user‐entered problem characteristics to assist in the selection of a mold design for specific requirements. The rule‐based KBS was developed using the 1st Class KBS development shell. In addition, the associated computer‐aided design system is described in some detail, along with areas for future research.
