An automatic, systematic and user-friendly computer-aided planner for robotized assembly

摘要

An automatic, systematic, and user-friendly approach to computer-aided assembly planning is presented. The automatic aspect of the methodology involved a reduction of the interactions with a human operator. In order to avoid the omission of one or several interesting sequences, this systematic method can generate all the valid sequences of a product. This approach is user-friendly because the intermediate and final results presented are easily understandable by the user despite the combinational explosion of results. Several results of the methodology are presented and discussed on the basis of a concrete case study.< <ETX xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">&gt;</ETX>
