Abstract:The aim of this paper is to facilitate the transfer of product data semantics from Computer Aided Design (CAD) program to assembly process planning (APP) in product life-cycle. In this paper, an approach to capture, share and transfer assembly design semantic data from SolidWorks (SW) CAD software to assembly device (robot Sony SRX series) is proposed. The proposed approach is based, on its first stage, on defining and extracting assembly design semantics from a CAD model using SolidWorks Application Programmable Interface (SW-API). The second stage of the proposed approach includes sharing and integrating the extracted assembly design semantics with assembly robot device by using three-layer ontology structure. In this layered ontology, different types of ontologies are proposed for each layer: general foundation ontology for the first, domain ontologies for the second and application ontology for the third. Each of these layers aids in defining concepts, relations and properties in assembly design domain and APP domain. Ultimately, the proposed ontology will be used to integrate both domains in product-life cycle.

Abstract. In today's world of fast manufacturing, high quality demands and highly competitive markets, it has become vital for companies to be able to extract knowledge from their operating data, to manage and to reuse this knowledge in efficient and automated manner. Ontology has proven to be one of the most successful methods in fulfilling this demand and to this day, it has been applied in number of scenarios within companies of all scales. The most appealing features of the ontology are well-defined structure of the knowledge organization; being machine understandable enables automatic reasoning and inference and finally, well defined semantics enables easy interoperability and design of the plug-in modules. Still, one key downfall of ontology is that it usually has to be manually designed from the beginning for each new use-case. This requires highly specialized knowledge experts working closely with the domain experts for, sometimes, significant period of time. In this paper we propose LinkedDesign solution for described issues, as an example of design of fundamental ontology which can be easily adjusted and adopted for different production systems, thus eliminating the need for repetition of entire design process for every individual company. We also discuss and point to a new and challenging fields of research emerging from application of ontology into manufacturing companies, mainly concerning rapidly growing amounts of knowledge which are beginning to exceed human ability to process it.

Abstract. The paper presents an initiative towards the harmonious and integrated management of lifecycle planning, such as assembly planning, disassembly planning, maintenance planning and so on. This stake currently meets industrial requirements and research issues, mainly in product lifecycle management, integrated design, and lifecycle engineering fields. The fact of managing X planning during product design requires therefore a complete understanding of the product lifecycle processes and various abstraction layers of data-information-knowledge. In such a way, the critical outcome is to ensure the development of well-balanced product by considering the rationale of lifecycle planning and managing its related data, information and knowledge.
