A new ray-testing approach is presented to classify the part surfaces to core/cavity surfaces and undercut surfaces by automatic identifying the visibility of surfaces. A simple, direct and efficient algorithm to identify surface visibility is developed. The algorithm is robust and adapted to rather complicated geometry, so it is valuable in computer-aided mold design systems. To validate the efficiency of the approach, an experimental program is implemented. Case studies show that the approach is practical and valuable in automatic parting line and parting surface generation.展开更多

This study, however, emphasizes using failure mode effect and criticality analysis(FMECA) as a basis for designing an ABC classification system that is capable of more accurately determining critical equipment and making maintenance more efficient. In the proposed methodology, risk priority numbers(RPN) and criticality as an index of safety and reliability can be obtained using a structured failure analysis technique. These indexes can be added to the economic indicator of maintenance cost, and then a classification model of spare parts can be established according to a comprehensive scoring method. The model is calibrated by using case data from a bus braking system, and the components of the braking system are compared and analyzed. The results show that the improved ABC classification method reduces the proportion of key and main components. This method can make maintenance work more efficient, targeting the most critical components, and can reduce administrative costs for enterprises.展开更多
