نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper presents a methodology for implementing the feature recognition system for achieving the Computer Aided Design/ Computer Aided Manufacturing (CAD/CAM) integration goals. The Featurebased modeling is being used to model the solid models. The features being considered in this paper is hole form feature. The input of the feature recognition system is the Standard for the Exchange of Product Model Data (STEP) files. The set of feature recognition rules is generated by using ruled based technique.

Integrated Activities of Cad & Cam
A Commercial mechanical CAD/CAM packages provide a rather low level of automation of process planning tasks and a weak connection between their CAD and CAM/NC part programming modules. Features have primarily been used as geometry construction 'macros' without fully realizing their potential in supporting downstream applications, such as process planning. This paper demonstrates the useof featu...
متن کاملSpecial Panel Session for Feature Recognition
Feature recognition is a discipline focusing on the design and implementation of algorithms for detecting manufacturing information such as holes, slots, etc. in a solid model. Automated feature recognition has been an active research area in solid modeling for many years, and is considered to be a critical component for CAD/CAM integration. This paper gives foundations for understanding the st...
متن کاملA new methodology for extracting manufacturing features from CAD system
In recent years, various researchers have come up with different ways and means to integrate CAD and CAM. Automatic feature recognition from CAD solid systems highly impacts the level of integration. CAD files contain detailed geometric information of a part, which are not suitable for using in the downstream applications such as process planning. Different CAD or geometric modeling packages st...
متن کاملSurvey of Feature Research
Recognition of machining features provides a bridge between Computer Aided Design (CAD) and Computer Aided Manufacturing (CAM) of machined parts. CAD produces part descriptions in terms of geometric entities or design features, which need not coincide with the manufacturing features needed by process planning activities. The CAD data must therefore be interpreted so as to generate part represen...
متن کاملA hybrid method for feature recognition in CAD models
Automatic Feature Recognition (AFR) techniques applied to 3D solid models are an important tool for achieving a true integration of Computer-Aided Design (CAD) and Computer-Aided Manufacturing (CAM) processes. In particular, AFR systems allow the identification in CAD models of high-level geometrical entities, features that are semantically significant for manufacturing operations. However, the...
