Arificial intelligence in machine tools design based on genetic algorithms application

The design of machine tools activity is an area with hundreds of years old. With the development of CAD/CAE systems, the engineers' work was greatly simplified. However, CAD/CAE systems are unable to overcome a critical threshold, thereby leaving the designer with many problems to be solved. Artificial intelligence field is also very exciting to develop this area. This paper presents a first attempt to introduce genetic algorithms in the design of machine tools.
