Abstract

Computer Aided Design (CAD) packages are widely used to create mathematical modelling of product’s geometry at the time of design and development phase. This CAD model involves very complicated definition of geometrical entities and interpretation of the same for assembly planning is an open research area. Most of the currently used assembly planning approaches hugely depends on human expert’s intervention. Current practices mostly use, only component name definition out of CAD data to identify component type which is likely to fail if the industry is using different language or number system to define component names. This paper presents a novel CAD data computation system for component type realization and assembly sequence generation. The developed system works automatically and independent of component names so that manual errors can be avoided. Assembly sequence generation helps in reducing complexity to be analyzed by human expert.
