Abstract

One of the biggest problems in pneumatic system design is over design. Thus, the results are excessive in costs of the initial investment and it requires too much energy. This article describes the development of expert system based pneumatic design system, PNEUDES (PNEUmatic Design Expert System), prototype that enables the user the optimal design of pneumatic system. Once the design requirements such as cylinder type and work load, etc. are input to the system, optimal cylinder specifications with standardized order-based size, valves types, and necessary accessories are all determined. Also the configuration information such as the connectivity among components and cylinder image data are supplied to the user. It can also help the novice of pneumatic design. The rule-based reasoning approach is used as a reasoning strategy with Intelligent Rule Element shell.
