In this paper, a CAD expert system for the design of swashplate type axial piston pumps is presented by embedding expert system techniques to the conventional pump CAD system. With the help of a modern and powerful expert system developing tool CLIPS, the design knowledge base and inference engine is constructed. The system has integrated three parts-design, performance simulation and drawing output. It has been verified that the CAD expert system is practical and efficient in the design process.
