The Product Modelling and Realisation Group at the IIA Research Center in
Helsinki University of Technology conducts research on a wide range of
product modelling and its applications in design and manufacturing.
The present work convers in particular the application of product modelling
for manufacturing preparation. We have built a feature-based modelling
system ExtDesign, and associated it with a prototype process planning
system MCOES which is specifically intended for shopfloor use in a
limited-function factory. The emphasis is on providing very rapid
turnaround of correct NC programs, and natural interfaces for factory
personnell in order to maintain the manufacturing models that form the
basis of the system.
This work has been linked to factory modeling and simulation in the GNOSIS
test case of IMS, the international research program on Intelligent
Manufacturing System.
Our interest also covers early design stages of artifacts. Again in GNOSIS,
work on symbolic assembly models and physics-based simulation was carried
out. Present plans include extending this work to design process and
rationale capture to support transfer of the results of a product
development process to operative product configuration systems.
