 INTRODUCTION
• Systems which operate autonomously or semi-autonomously.

• Valavanis and Saridis define the differ from hierarchical structures

• Mapping is embedded into the machine hierarchical structure to perform

the operations without human interaction

• It is now Widely accepted structure is composed of three level of control

BACKGROUND AND STATE OF THE ART
• In 1937, Alan Turing

• Introducing of intelligent machine that could “think” like human

• “Imitation test” later called the “Turing test”. That is the start point
for intelligent machine to develop.

• Introducing to all field of engineering and also in CAD/CAM system

• Important part of intelligent CAM system is cutting tool-path for CNC

1) Incorporating AI into CAM system

2) Modeling and control of various machine tool parameters, using AI

technique

3) Building the intelligence into CNC unit of machine tool

Incorporating AI into CAM system
• Today CAD/CAM system is based on the model from 1950’s
• New data exchange protocol is needed for automatic and
intelligent.
• Machining processes are predicted.
• First recognizes the geometric feature of CAD and choose
more suitable tool path.
• A special system save the data about parts.
 Modeling and control of various machine tool parameters,
using artificial techniques

• Significant stream in state-of-the-arte research

• Simple GA using

• Time reduction achieved 35%

Building the intelligence into CNC unit of machine tool

• Learning and automatic intelligence built-in

into a special NN device.
• Structure based on BUS principle, which is
directly connected to CNC processor.
• New concept of CNC can connect to internet
and use as virtual manufacturing.
 NEW INTELLIGENT MODEL OF CNC PROGRAMMING

• Basic idea of the system was

Developed in the past
research work
• Basic structure of intelligent
CAN/CAM system
 CASE STUDY
• Made for turning operation
of rotational part

GA based turning
• Made for milling of prismatic parts

Die made by GA based milling

• Needed skilled CNC engineer

• Newly developed GA based system

• GA optimization is to generate the shortest tool-

path

• Each cut consist of several basic tool movements

• Less tool movement means higher efficiency and shorter machining
time which result in decreasing of production costs
 CONCLUSION
The key advantage of the newly developed model is
introduction of GA based algorithm to generate
rough and finish tool path strategy for machining of
rotational parts on CNC lathe
The machining time has significant reduce up 20%.the
system is autonomic, intelligent, robust, user friendly,
organization and it is not centrally control
