摘要
Assembly sequence planning will be more difficult due to the increasingcomplexity of products. An integrated approach to assembly sequence planning of complex productsapplying de-composition-planning-combination strategy is presented. First, an assembly is decomposedinto a hierarchical structure using an assembly structure representation based on connectors. Then,an assembly planning system is used to generate the sequences that are locally optimal for eachleaf partition hi the structure hierarchy. By combining the local sequences systematically in abottom-up manner and choosing suitable ones from the merged sequences, the assembly sequence of eachparent structure including the whole assembly is generated. An integrated system has beencompleted. A complex product is given to illustrate the feasibility and the practicality of theapproach.
