Utilization of Plc Programming for Gravity Die Casting Automation

Under the present regime of globalization and liberalization, quality enhancement and cost reduction are two major steps to enhance productivity in major Industries. We focused on the very practical, safe, economical and rewarding strategies i.e. the application of LOW COST AUTOMATION. In Industry which uses of automation, a sequence is followed in the manufacturing of number of products of the...

Computer-Aided System for Multi-Cavity Die-Casting Die-Design

Die-design for the die-casting process is a time consuming and complex activity that requires domain knowledge and vast experience of the die-designer besides information about manufacturing resources, part geometry, delivery time and cost preferences, etc. Complexity of the die-design activity further increases in case of a multi-cavity die. Currently available die-design systems lack in the l...

Generating Multiaxis Tool Paths for Die and Mold Making with Evolutionary Algorithms

Defining tool paths for multiaxis milling is a difficult task that requires knowledge about the process and the behavior of the machine tool. Because of the high risks of multiaxis movements within a real machine, the resulting paths are safe but normally sub-optimal. This article introduces a new method to obtain tool paths, which are free of collisions and optimal in consideration, the machin...
