Case Study

Given fig shows a flanged cup product as a typical example run on the knowledge based CAPP system for drawing operation.

Figure: Flanged Cup used in the Case Study 

Given figure shows the strip layout for progressive die to produce the flanged cup. The layout shows developed blank geometry, single row layout, sequence of drawing, associated stages and intermediate pinch and die shapes. The knowledge base stored in the CAPP system, provides very robust and reliable decision support, and ensures efficient and defect free drawing of final shape from blank geometry.
