DELMIA Version 6 Release 2013x

Assembly Feasibility Studies through 3D Simulation

Users of DELMIA Assembly Process Simulation (APS) are able to leverage the power of the V6 3D environment as they perform product assembly feasibility studies through simulation. Utilizing the intuitive and powerful capabilities of DELMIA Assembly Process Simulation, assembly process planner are able to discover potential assembly issues and communicate their discoveries directly to product designers or other stakeholders early; when the ability to implement product or process changes is easy and the cost of such changes is low.

DELMIA Assembly Process Simulation provides a virtual 3D environment, including the shop floor resources and layout. Planner is able to create, optimize, and validate the assembly process in the context of the manufacturing setting where the plan will be executed.

• Explode assembly
• Interactive trajectory creation
• Reverse trajectories
• Interference detection during simulation
• Creation of simulation choreography
• Compile Simulation, create replay/avi’s
• Create swept volume from replays

• Explode assembly

  Reduce the time to create a valuable disassembly state and in understanding how the assembly process needs to be planned. Quickly view the components of an assembly in an exploded view before planning the assembly process

• Interactive trajectory creation

  Early and rapid validation of assemblies by interactive verification and creation of parts trajectory. Easily create assembly and disassembly moves by moving individual parts with the compass and recording intermediate positions.

• Reverse trajectories

  Enhance the analysis value and rapid validation of assemblies by reusing and reversing predefined trajectories. Quickly convert an assembly move to a disassembly move or vice versa.

• Interference detection during simulation

  Early and precise validation of the feasibility of assembly. Identify collisions in your assembly process and make modifications.

• Creation of simulation choreography

  Sharing the assembly results in a meaningful manner for larger audience. Dress-up your assembly simulation by adding color, visibility, text, and and camera animation changes in between trajectory moves.

• Compile Simulation, create replay/avi’s

  Sharing the assembly results in a meaningful manner for larger audience. Produce avi’s that can be shared outside the team.

• Create swept volume from replays

  Enhance reusability of the analysis of the assembly for larger user community. Use swept volumes of trajectories to identify space constraints and other bottle necks in your assembly simulation.
