Abstract
The paper presents a fuzzy logic based algorithm for the choosing of the gearbox housing work piece in some production conditions. In many cases this problem is solved empirically, based on the experience of the manufacturer. The present work uses the so-called rating of suitability of a part for a certain manufacturing method. It consists of the formalization of the knowledge regarding the production conditions (production volume, loading conditions) using fuzzy sets and then the work piece choosing decision through the comparison between the ratings of suitability of the given part for the considered manufacturing methods that can be used to obtain the given work piece (steel welded, cast iron and aluminum). In order to obtain a general point of view regarding the suitability rate for a specific set of production conditions, a fuzzy logic MATLAB® toolbox was adapted. The described fuzzy logic algorithm allows a rapid, argued choosing of the work piece type in the production of gearbox housings.
