Metrics for Evaluating Design of Reconfigurable Machine Tools

  • Conference paper
Book cover Cooperative Design, Visualization, and Engineering (CDVE 2006)

Abstract

This paper shows the development of metrics for evaluate the design of reconfigurable machine tools to process bamboo, which allows the numerical comparison of reconfigurability parameters in the design process, based on a concurrent design methodology to Reconfigurable Machine Tool development. In response, metrics for evaluate the development of this type of machine tools is outlined.
