Existing virtual assembly systems are lacking in sense of reality. This paper explored a new assembly simulation system based on virtual reality technology to enhance immersion. After comparison of available technologies, the new system was built with Unity3D as the virtual reality simulating platform, virtual reality helmet as the virtual assembly displayer, Leap Motion as the interactive device, and corresponding algorithms to assist gesture recognition and collision detection. The new system enriches the interaction between the operator and the device, reflects the assembly process more real and increases the efficiency of actual assembly problems solving.

“…Manufacturing systems and processes are being combined to reduce costs and increase company profitability by simulation technology, computer hardware, and operating systems. One of the most important developments in this regard is called "Virtual Manufacturing", which involves the simulation of products, performance, mechanical functionality and the process involved in its fabrication [1,2]. Virtual Manufacturing is an integrated set of tools that identify steps necessary to manufacture a product, analysis those steps for precision and then produce machine and work instructions for manufacturing the product.…”

The high cost and long lead times of traditional manufacturing makes it difficult for manufactures to efficiently meet eternally changing market demands. In order to determine the manufacturability of the component and low cost production of aircraft manufacturing, Digital Virtual Manufacturing plays a vital role. By the advancement in technologies like Virtual Manufacturing tools used through Product Lifecycle Management (PLM), are competent to access and reuse the best practices, as well as evaluate 3-D manufacturing scenarios. By implementing advance 3-D CAD systems with the CNC machines enables the success of the determinate assembly approach to significantly reduce the lead time aircraft manufacturing. This paper encompasses the virtual manufacturing concept to enable complex manufacturing set-up analysis, exchanging expertise at collaborative work. Virtual Manufacturing is using the manufacturing knowledge at PLM environment for defining the assembly process of an aircraft parts.

“…Recently, an early-stage examination of different product life-cycle aspects related to design, manufacturing, maintenance, service, and recycling has been made possible by integrating VR tools into the modern CAD environments, a practice referred to as 'virtual prototyping' [6][7][8]. Such an evaluation results in a significant reduction of time and cost associated with physical prototyping, and allows for the elimination of a large subset of design issues in the earlier stages of the process.…”

The development of a generic and effective force model for semiautomatic or manual virtual assembly with haptic support is not a trivial task, especially when the assembly constraints involve complex features of arbitrary shape. The primary challenge lies in a proper formulation of the guidance forces and torques that effectively assist the user in the exploration of the virtual environment (VE), from repulsing collisions to attracting proper contact. The secondary difficulty is that of efficient implementation that maintains the standard 1 kHz haptic refresh rate. We propose a purely geometric model for an artificial energy field that favors spatial relations leading to proper assembly, differentiated to obtain forces and torques for general motions. The energy function is expressed in terms of a cross-correlation of shape-dependent affinity fields, precomputed offline separately for each object. We test the effectiveness of the method using familiar peg-in-hole examples. We show that the proposed technique unifies the two phases of free motion and precise insertion into a single interaction mode and provides a generic model to replace the ad hoc mating constraints or virtual fixtures, with no restrictive assumption on the types of the involved assembly features.
