Abstract

Parts definition language used to describe ships parts for N/C fabrication can also be used to assist the designer/draftsman in producing ship's plans. Expanded coding techniques developed by General Dynamics allow the efficient application of the AUTOKON Parts Program to provide the interface between the drafting function and the numerically controlled flat - bed plotter.
