Abstract

The production of high performance metal parts requires a well balanced sequence of operations and can usually technologically not be achieved in a single process. This issue leads to complex process chains on the shop floor and the requirement to split single processes into multistage processes in hard-finishing operations. In both cases, the objective for the process planning is to achieve not only a local optimum for the individual processes but rather an overall optimum for the complete sequence. In order to reach the overall optimum, the process planner needs to integrate the effects between the processes into consideration. These effects which are referred to as cross-process interdependencies lead to balanced settings of process parameters and results in a much more effective operation of the sequence. In this paper, a novel approach dealing with the integration of cross-process interdependencies in the hard-finishing process of multistage grinding is introduced. It is based on an a-priori multicriteria dimensioning procedure which allows the integration of cross-process interdependencies and is implemented in software programmed in JAVA. A multistage plunge grinding process for crankshaft journals is used for evaluation of the results predicted by a developed software prototype.
