Further Information
The aim of this lecture is to introduce the basic methods of modelling and simulation of selected manufacturing processes from the fields of forming, machining with geometrically defined cutting edge and machining with geometrically undefined cutting edge.
It is shown how it is possible to increase the process understanding, to improve the process safety and to optimize the working result by modelling and simulation of manufacturing processes. It is to be obtained, how by simulation of manufacturing processes also on the construction unit characteristics is to be inferred. Empirical, physical and numerical model approaches will be presented. The basics of the simulation methods will be dealt with on the basis of executed examples and the possibilities and limits of simulation will be made clear.
