ENGINEERING CONTENT MANAGEMENT AS PART OF DIGITAL ASSEMBLY LAYOUTS
The work considers methods for placing engineering information (linear dimensions, specifications, etc.) as part of the imported assembly unit by means of the Open CASCADE geometric core. The development is connected with the research of export formats and obtaining from them the structure of digital models of parts in the assemblies, entering technical specifications and building linear dimensions in the product layout. The software design uses technology to work with CAD data exchange formats, solutions that allow you to obtain model geometry and technical information from the files. To justify the creation of the software component, a structural description of the design module is given when engineering data is introduced into a digital product layout, a process for loading an assembly unit is presented, which should be accompanied not only by extracting the geometry of each part model of the assembly, but also by obtaining names for all the units that are part of the assembly unit. An algorithmic solution has been prepared to extract the list of assembly part names. In addition, an algorithm for setting linear dimensions, where the positioning of each dimension is determined by the control points and the plane in which the dimension will be placed is proposed. The development is prepared for use in the Linux Manjaro operating system based on 64-bit architecture.
