摘要:
A method of creating a tooling master model for a manufacturing process for a part includes generating a manufacturing context model from a parametric model for the part. The tooling master model includes a tooling geometry for the part, and the manufacturing context model includes a number of tooling features. A system for generating the tooling master model includes a computer aided design (CAD) system configured to receive the parametric model and to generate the manufacturing context model from the parametric model.

A method of re-engineering a part includes generating a parametric master model for the part from an editable geometry for the part and generating a manufacturing context model from a design master model. The design master model includes the parametric master model, and the manufacturing context model includes a number of tooling features. The method further includes creating a tooling master model from the manufacturing context model. The tooling master model includes a tooling geometry for the part. A system for re-engineering a part includes a part design master model module configured to generate the parametric master model from the editable geometry and a tooling master model module configured to receive the parametric master model, to generate the manufacturing context model from the parametric master model, and to create the tooling master model from the manufacturing context model.
摘要:
A method for reconstructing internal surface geometry of a part includes registering a thickness map for the part with external surface data for the part. The thickness map has a number of thickness data. Internal surface data is generated using the thickness map and the external surface data to reconstruct the internal surface geometry.
摘要:
A system and method for managing the currentness of files of a product at the time of release to manufacturing. A data extractor and populator extracts attributes of features in a master model and populates the extracted information in drawing files and NC machining data files. A version control system manages versions of the master model and the files. A release unit releases a version of the files that is current with the latest version of the master model.
