RDBMS - based computer aided process planning

The process planning is the task that links the design information into the manufacturing processes and determines the operation sequence in manufacturing. Process planning is concerned with the preparation of route sheets that list the sequence of operations and work centers require to produce the product and its components. In the area of process planning, there could be manufacturing, assembly and inspection processes. Computer-aided process planning can be a solution that provides a great assistance in this aspect and could even replace the human planners in the planning procedure. A CAPP system can not only increase the consistency of process plans but also their correctness. Yet, such kind of systems should be developed with sufficient learning capabilities and human thinking logic. The main scope of the study is the efficient computer aided process planning to overcome the problem of complexity in CAD/CAM systems by developing Relational Database CAPP
