Abstract

Process Planning activities are significantly based on experience and technical skill. In spite of the great efforts made for planning automation, this activity continues being made in manual form. Process Planning activities are significantly based on experience and technical skills. The advent of the CAM systems (Computer Aided Manufacturing) has partially close the gap left between the Automated Design and Manufacture. Meanwhile, a great dose of manual work still exists and investigation in this area is still necessary. This paper presents the application of a multi objective genetic algorithm for the definition of the optimal cutting parameters. The objective functions consider the production rate and production cost in turning operations. The obtained Pareto front is compared to high efficiency cutting range. This paper also describes one application of the developed mechanism using an example.
