Abstract
The present chapter describes an expert system for automatic design of compound dies. The knowledge base of this system is constructed through coding of more than 1500 production rules of ‘IF-THEN’ variety in AutoLISP language. The system is structured in 22 modules. User interface is created using Visual Basic (VB) and AutoCAD software. The proposed system automates all major activities of design of compound die. The system finally generates the drawings (2-D and 3-D) of die components and die assembly of compound die automatically in the drawing editor of AutoCAD software. These drawings can be directly used for die manufacturing. The system can be implemented on a PC having VB and AutoCAD software and therefore its low cost of implementation makes it affordable for small scale enterprises.
