On the basis of analyzing assembly process of main structural components in CA6140 lathe, 3D models for those components were established with CAD software UGNX6.0. Virtual assembly and motion simulation of the structure parts were performed with virtual technology. A set of virtual assembly system of CA6140 engine lathe was developed with programming software Visual Basic 6.0. It contains six main modules about spindle box, feed box, apron, tailstock, turret, etc. Dynamic simulation and motion simulation of the corresponding components in entity lathe can be realized, respectively. And also, mechanical structure, working principle, assembly relation between different components and motion transmission process of the lathe can be realistically reproduced with the system. This virtual assembly system not only can be used to analyze and transform old products, but also can be used in new products development, and to some extent, can be used to replace the prototype. It is an indispensable tool in the employee training and mechanical engineering activities.

This paper presents a feasible approach for modeling and locating of assembly\disassembly tools in the virtual scene: First, a novel point-vector model for tool is presented by means of abstracting the locating constraints of tools; Then, the mapping relationship for locating constraints between tools and parts is detailed; Finally, the best matching constraints algorithm is proposed on basis of point-vector model, which can calculate the locating constraints to the triangle model of part in real time. The proposed method has been integrated in the virtual assembly system to solve practical assembly problems.

Mathematical Presentation

In this paper, a Colored Petri Net modeling method for early stage design of virtual assembly operation is presented. The characteristics of virtual assembly system, Petri Net and Colored Petri Net are analyzed. Some previous work in Petri Net application in assembly and virtual assembly system is discussed. The theoretical aspects of Colored Petri Net are introduced mathematically. Based on the mathematical presentation and the process of fasteners assembly operation, a Colored Petri Net model is constructed for the simulation of assembly operation in virtual environment. With CPN Tools software package, the simulation for evaluating the feasibility of modeling is implemented. It is demonstrated that the modeling approach can support the early stage design of virtual assembly system.

Evaluation and planning of assembly processes in virtual environments have become an active research area in engineering community. However, planning of complex assemblies in virtual environments, especially large-scale virtual environments, is still hindered by limitations like unnatural user interaction, insufficient frame rates, and deficiencies in processing of assembly constraints. In this paper, we present MIVAS, a Multi-modal Immersive Virtual Assembly System. By viewing the virtual assembly system as a finite state machine, we incorporate tracked devices, force feedback dataglove, voice commands, human sounds, fully immersive 4-sided CAVE, together with optimization techniques for both complex assembly models and assembly operations to provide for engineers an intuitive and natural way of assembly evaluation and planning. Testing scenarios on disassembling different components of an intelligent hydraulic excavator are described. Special attention is paid upon such technical issues as interface between CAD packages and the CAVE virtual environment, natural and intuitive user interaction including realistic virtual hand interaction and force feedback, intelligent navigation for assembly operations, and real-time display of complex assemblies.

The conventional method of PLC program design is difficult to analysis and solve the complicated control system. Based on examples, the model of Virtual Assembly System is established through by Petri Net (PN), ordinal, parallel and synchronous relationship among events is described directly and accurately. And the Petri net transfers the PN model into LAD of PLC, which improves the efficiency in programming the LAD program of PLC.

Virtual manufacturing technology has become an effective method for decision and planning in manufacturing. Due to ergonomics problems are widely concerned in assembly design planning, a human-centered virtual assembly system framework is proposed for ergonomics analysis for assembly operation in this paper. The six-layer framework integrates virtual human modeling, motion capture and recognition, ergonomics evaluation and virtual assembly process planning as an organic whole. Data exchanging and system function are discussed based on this framework. The work in virtual reality (VR) technology, motion capture technology, ergonomics method and optimization method for implementing the system is also described. The framework would provide a new approach for the combination of virtual manufacturing and ergonomics analysis in the future.
