Abstract
A framework of an intelligent tool selection system for milling based on STEP-NC machining features is proposed. The main objective of the research is to develop a procedure for the selection of cutting tools. This will help the planners to select the optimal cutting tools. The proposed system consists of the knowledge base module, the inference engine, the user interface and the database. The implementation of the presented system is developed in Solidworks. An example is given to demonstrate the feasibility and efficiency of the prototype system. As a result, this research shows a high potential to aid the development of tool selection and process planning milling system.
