Abstract
The paper reports the design and implementation of a computer-assisted process planning system (PC-CAPP) for prismatic components used in the batch production of portable electric tools. The software incorporates various modules for component feature representation; automatic machine, toolings and process parameter selection; set-up planning; production time calculation and finally the report generation. The user-friendly software package has been developed on an IBM PC/XT compatible system. It provides a quick and efficient method for generating consistent process plans
