Abstract

In this chapter different phases of setup planning task are discussed in detail. Setup planning mainly comprises of feature grouping, setup formation, datum selection, machining operation sequencing, and setup sequencing. The main criteria for feature grouping and setup formation are tool approach direction and tolerance relation among the features. Datum selection primarily depends on area of a feature, its orientation, surface quality and its tolerance relations with other features. Machining operation sequencing and setup sequencing is done based on feature precedence relations.
