Machine Tool User Cylindrical Die Rolling Performance Support System
This project was initiated to provide the machine tool industry and the DOE a method for evaluating educating potential users about various aspects of the cylindrical die rolling process including: characteristics of the cylindrical die rolling processes, major productivity and material savings benefits, advantages for use in the fastener industry, production capabilities based on part parameters, and production capabilities based on machine specifications. AlliedSignal Federal Manufacturing and Technologies (ASFM and T) utilized data provided by Kinefac Corporation to develop an interactive performance support system. AlliedSignal developed one complete branch of the program and Kinefac will develop the remaining two branches. Macromedia Authorware version 3.5 and Microsoft Access version 7.0 were selected for development tools. These software tools maximize continued program development ease and program management with future machine technology advancements. Using this authoring tool and the external database resulted in development of a product that has many potential uses within the manufacturing industry. Source code for the product can be used as a template for other applications is reusable and can provide potential solutions to non-manufacturing needs. The final product will be released on CD-ROM.
