Quality-driven Sequence Planning and Line Configuration Selection for Compliant Structure Assemblies
نویسنده
چکیده
Assembly sequence planning is an integral part of a new product and process development. However, currently there are very few available approaches to evaluate the impact of assembly sequences on product quality. This paper develops a methodology for Quality-driven Sequence Planning (QISP) with consideration to product dimensional quality based on the following three steps: (1) Sequence generation for predetermined line configurations using k-piece mixed-graph representation of assembly; (2) Dimensional quality model of variation propagation for assembl~y processes with compliant parts; and (3) Evaluation of sequences based on the multivariate process capability index. The methodology is illustrated using an industrial case study.

Assembly Sequence Planning Method for Compliant Assembly
Compliant assemblies are widely used in automobiles and airplanes etc. In order to simplify the complex assembly sequence planning problem of compliant assemblies involving dimensional variation caused by deformation, a two-step assembly sequence planning method is proposed in this paper. Meanwhile, an example of a wingbox assembly is used to explain the principle of the method. In the first st...

متن کاملPath planning for planar articulated robots using configuration spaces and compliant motion
This paper presents a path planning algorithm for an articulated planar robot with a static obstacle. The algorithm selects a robot part, finds a path to its goal configuration by systematic configuration space search, drags the entire robot along the path using compliant motion, and repeats the cycle until every robot part reaches its goal. The planner is tested on 11,000 random problems, whic...
