Integration of CAD and CAPP system is always a difficult problem in the research, the reason is that the information expression is not consistent. As the output of the CAD system, STEP standard can provide a unified interface to the CAPP system information extraction. In this paper, based on STEP neutral file part feature information extraction and recognition technology, the output from the CAD geometry STEP neutral file includes geometric characteristics information and manufacturing information, the STEP information was transformed into a format recognized by CAPP system. Based on the above research, the process design system was developed based on the information extraction and storage of parts of STEP system, and the system feasibility was proved.

On the basis of analysis and summary of the research of the others, we choose the notepad as the carrier of the data file and a code as the expression of the feature information of the products, embedding them in the 3D CAD system like a plug-in unit. In this way, the products’ data accurate transmission between distributed and isomeric CAD systems over the internet is realized. This method can also be used in the real-time collaborative design system.

Abstract This paper gives an overview of a collaborative design system (CDS) for electromechanical products. To reduce design costs and to manufacture high-quality products, it is well known that concurrent engineering (CE) is a very efficient approach. Three-dimensional (3D) CAD system and engineering database system are essential components of CE. The CDS is an environment to realize CE. By creating 3D models in a computer and performing some simulations such as mechanical, electronic, software simulation and integrated simulations, it is possible to estimate functions, assemblability, manufacturability and so on, before making prototype models. In this paper, we outline the CDS and mainly discuss the total information management system (TIMS) which makes an important role of the CDS. This paper describes the implementation experience of some functions of the TIMS.

This research aims to help universities that do not have an academic information system and facilitate EPSBED data report to Directorate of Higher Education (DHE). The method used is the three first stages in the System Development Life Cycle (SDLC), which are systems engineering, requirements analysis, and design system. The result is a design of university business process, design of database, and design of user interface. This research finds that DHE has a specific data structure that can represent the basic activities of a study program. Therefore, this system design can be used for reporting of EPSBED data as well as for data collection of study program activities.

Abstract System requirements and system design for integrating a production rule program and a computer aided design system are presented. An implementation using a commercially available graphics modeling system is described. A “suggestive mode” interface is programmed as an example with application to design for automated assembly. Initial use of the implementation indicates that encoding production rules is more difficult than with conventional text-only knowledge-based systems, but that this system is a more effective way to use artificial intelligence techniques in design.

Abstract The concept of “Features” has been recognized as a neutral form of communication between design and manufacturing. Since virtually all CAD systems define part models using B-Rep or CSG formats, a facility is needed to convert geometry based part models to ones which are feature based. This paper outlines the framework of a facility which would enable part models from any type of CAD system to be converted to a format which could be analyzed using a knowledge based design system. This facility relies on the user to recognize and isolate the individual features of the model and then extracts the dimensions, locations and relative positioning of the features within the model. These features are then organized into a feature graph for the construction of a feature based part representation. The procedures for the construction of this part representation include feature instantiation, feature placement and functional specification.
