Abstract

Assembly operation occupies major stake in the manufacturing process to obtain the final product. In order to obtain an assembly sequence for a given product, the product should be free of clashes between the parts. To know the clash between the parts, many researchers are followed mathematical models to generate contact data information of the product. These methods will consume much time and search space to extract the information from the product. Current research focuses on developing an automatic algorithm to generate the clash analysis report using macros CATIA V5 R17. In this method, it will not only generate the clash analysis report but also generate a contact information matrix between the parts of the assembly. The developed methodology is implemented on various industrial products to extract the clash information of the product.

Keywords- Computer aided design (CAD), Clash analysis, Assembly sequence, Automation.
