KNOWLEDGE BASED ENGINEERING – AN APPROACH VIA AUTOMATED DESIGN OF STORAGE/RETRIEVAL SYSTEM
Journal Title: Proceedings in Manufacturing Systems - Year 2011, Vol 6, Issue 4
Abstract
Expanding markets and flexible commercial structures (e-commerce) generate various logistic demands and force manufacturers to offer diverse material handling equipment. To fulfill this demands specially the design process must be straight forwarded to minimize developing time, as most of the whole costs to produce a new product are settled here. Automated storage/retrieval systems (AS/RS) are backbones of many distribution centers and widespread. As they have lots of common attributes and nearly equal characteristics, they are predestinated for knowledge based techniques. The paper now describes knowledge based engineering in general and its additional value and focuses on a practical design of an AS/RS. The main describing equations are derived and the realization in ProEngineer is presented.
