High machining technology is needed for manufacturing jet engines for use in aircrafts. To reduce errors in the jet engine machining process, the machining companies of aircraft engines have introduced the CAM (computer-aided manufacturing) technology. However, to create a CAM model, the operator must manually conduct machining operations based on a CAD (computer-aided design) model, which can take several days or weeks. To solve this problem, this study proposes a method for automatically generating a CAM model for machining holes in the parts, using a CAD model. In this method, the features of the hole are recognized from the CAD model and translated into machining operations to be used with the CATIA program. Additionally, a prototype system was implemented and the proposed method was experimentally verified.

CAD/CAM 시스템에서 유한요소해석에 필요한 과정들과 이와 관련된 기술 및 연구 동향을 살펴 보았다. 근래에 이르러 CAD/CAM 시스템의 개념이 초기의 자동제도 시스템에 그치지 않고, 이제는 제품의 설계 개발에서부터 제조에 이르는 일련의 엔지니어링 작업을 통합하는 CAE(Computer Aided Engineering) 시스템의 개념으로 발전되고 있으며, 우리나라에서도 이 분야에 많은 관심과 수요가 크게 늘고 있음은 당연한 추세라 할 수 있다. 그러나 아직까지 이에 필요한 소프트웨어들이 국내에서 개발되지 않아 전량 수입에 의존하고 있는 실정으로, 앞으로 이러한 수입추세는 점점 늘어날 것으로 전망된다. 더욱이 최근 들어 선진국들이 원천 프로그 램(source code)의 이전을 기피함에 따라 관련기술의 국산화가 어렵고, 이들의 응용에 제약이 많아 기술의 예속화가 우려된다 하겠다. 따라서 현재 국내의 산어 규모와 기술 수준으로 미루 어볼 때, 국내에서도 소프트웨어들을 개발해야 할 시점에 와 있다고 하겠다.

The growth of the World Wide Web and the advances in high-speed network access have greatly changed existing CAD/CAE environment. The WWW has enabled us to share various distributed product data and to collaborate in the design process. An international standard for the product model data, STEP, and a standard for the distributed object technology, CORBA, are very important technological components for the interoperability in the advanced design and manufacturing environment. These two technologies provide background for the sharing of product data and the integration of applications on the network. This paper describes a distributed CAD/CAE environment that is integrated on the network by CORBA and product model data standard STEP. Several prototype application modules were implemented to verify the proposed concept and the test result is discussed. Finite element analysis server are further distributed into several frontal servers for the implementation of distributed parallel solution of finite element system equations. Distributed computation of analysis server is also implemented by using CORBA for the generalization of the proposed method.

Computer-aided engineering (CAE) is the broad usage of computer software to aid in engineering tasks. It includes computer-aided design (CAD), computer-aided analysis (CAA), computer-integrated manufacturing (CIM), computer-aided manufacturing (CAM), material requirements planning (MRP), and computer-aided planning (CAP). In this study, the stress of mold analyzed using CAE technique. Punch loads were same difference between 0.5 % and 1.0 % of clearance, but punch load was decreased according to increasing of clearance. Punch load of pre-piercing process worked a little smaller than piercing process. Therefore, the hole of fine blanking process is also more efficient to manufacture the true size after pre-piercing.

NC 기술은 하드웨어적, 소프트웨어적으로 빠르게 발전하고 있다. 소프트웨어적인 측면에서 NC제어기는 다양한 적응제어, 지능제어를 지원하는 추세이며, NC 가공기의 경우 고속가공, 정밀가공의 기능적 측면에서 발전이 이루어지고 있다. 뿐만 아니라, 컴퓨터 기술의 발전에 힘입어 NC가공을 지원하기 위한 환경(CAD, CAM, CAE) 역시 바르게 변화하고 있다. 그러나 CAM과 CNC 사이의 데이터 인터페이스는 여전히 ISO 6983(“G-Code”)이 사용되고 있다.

CAD systems are routinely used by designers for creating part geometries. Interfaces to CAE/CAM systems are also commonplace enabling the FEA-based design optimization and the rapid fabrication of the designed part. However, conventional CAD systems have thus far focused on objects with homogeneous interior. Two recent advances--use of heterogeneous objects such as Functionally Graded Materials (FGM) in parts and Layered Manufacturing Technology (LMT)--have brought to the forefront the need for CAD systems to support the creation of geometry as well as the graded material inside. We first describe the need and the components of such a CAD system for heterogeneous objects. A prototype CAD system is then described with one specific example (thermal barrier type FGM, pressure vessel) in order to illustrate the use of the implemented CAD system. The implemented system is manually integrated with FEA tools for optimal design. Our ongoing work involves the automation of the integration with FEA tools.

The role of product model in CIM environemt(where such heterogenous application programs as CAD, CAE, CAM, Database, and Expert Systems are included) is system integration. Product model manages all the information related to manufacuring activities. This information includes shapes, operation, process, scheduling, quality, and mangement. Product model architecture includes product model kernel, object schema, model manipulation language, and user interface. Objects to be shared are defined using the model manipulation luage and the defintions are saved in the object schema. In this paper, we present the design and implementation of a prototype. In this prototype, application programs for CAPP(Computer Aided Process Planning) are used.

Computer Aided Engineering(CAE) technology as well as Design(CAD) and Manufacturing(CAM) have been widely adopted in the aerospace industry in order to develop the structure of airplanes, satellites and launch vehicles. Among them, CAE softwares based on finite element methods such as NASTRAN, ABAQUS and ANSYS have gained many engineers' interest in various industries such as automobiles, civils, aircraft and spacecraft. The softwares usually consist of several modules: Static, Dynamic, Vibration, Impact etc. that make analysis specific to meet the design goals of the structure systems. Recent enhancement in the computer hardwares and numerical algorithms enables us to perform complex analysis like multi-physics, optimum design. Also, they make it possible to deal with a large scale problem easily. This paper reviews structural analysis softwares in aerospace industry and gives a summary on its recent development.
