Toward an integrated CAD assembly sequence planning solution

摘要

Assembly sequence planning has drawn the attention of many researchers over the last years. Despite, the great development of CAD software in many aspects (simulation algorithms, interfaces, and ergonomics), automatic generation of assembly sequence planning from CAD assembly remains an issue to improve especially with the increasing complexity of industrial products. In this paper, an approach of assembly sequence planning generation from a CAD assembly model is presented. In order to generate feasible assembly sequence planning, the developed approach begins with the exploration of CAD assembly. Then, a collision analysis is performed to identify all possible obstacles during the components' motion. An example of CAD assembly is presented in all sections of this paper in order to demonstrate the efficiency of the proposed approach.
