Locating constraint mapping technique and assembly rule-based reasoning are applied. Calculating algorithm of the position and pose for the part model, fixture configuration and fixture elements in virtual auto-body assembly space are given. Transforming fixture element from itself coordinate system space to assembly space with homogeneous transformation matrix is realized. Based on the second development technique of unigraphics（UG）, the automated assembly is implemented with application program interface （API） function. Lastly the automated assembly of measuring fixture for rear longeron as a case is implemented.展开更多

It is shown here that a successful robot application to the automation of a process requires in-depth research of the process and the interaction with the robot. For this purpose, a process plan- ning-driven approach is proposed to guide a robot applica- tion research. A typical process planning will involve a list of key considerations including： process sequence, process parameters, process tooling, and process control. Through this list, a number of key research issues are identified for robotic percussive riveting, such as rivet pattern planning, rivet time determination, rivet tooling design and rivet insertion control. The detailed research on these issues has effectively created know-how for the successful implemen- tation of our robotic percussive riveting system.展开更多
