A part definition must not only provide shape information of a nominal part but also contain non-shape information such as tolerances, surface roughness and material specifications. Although machining features are useful for suitable shape information fur process reasoning in CAPP, they need to be integrated with tolerance information for effective process planning. We develop a tolerance modeler that efficiently integrates the machining features with the tolerance information fur feature-based CAPP. It is based on the association of machining features, tolerance features, and tolerances. The tolerance features in this study, where tolerances are assigned, are classified into two types; one type is a face that is a topological entity on a solid model and the other type is a functional geometry that is not referenced to topological entities. The (unctional geometry is represented by using machining features. All the data fur representing the tolerance information are stored completely and unambiguously in an independent tolerance data structure. The developed tolerance modeler is implemented as a module of a comprehensive feature-based CAPP system.

Every mechanical part for mass production has dimensions with tolerances in engineering drawing. Tolerance is given to guarantee assemble parts together satisfying functional requirements and dimensional constraints. Tolerance is essential factor for standardization of parts or assembly and has huge influence on manufacturing cost. It will be desirable to have tolerances as broad as possible for minimizing manufacturing cost. This paper describes tolerance analysis of u-joint assembly that is a part of automobile steering system. Within the range of tolerances of parts, accumulated effect is estimated by arithmetic calculation, probability theory and Monte carlo simulation. Each result is compared to investigate the method for increasing productivity.

에어컨 실내기 조립 시 부품간 간섭이 발생하는 위치와 원인 분석을 위해, 3차원 공차해석을 수행하고 부품공차 및 조립 갭을 최적화했다. 민감도 분석을 통해 초기 설계에서 drain과 body 조립부의 불량발생 확률이 72.6%로 가장 높은 것을 확인했고, 또한 유한요소해석(FEA)을 활용 에어컨 실내기의 난방작동 시 열 변형으로 인해 최대 약 1mm의 변위가 발생하여 부품간 간섭이 발생할 수 있음을 확인했다. 이런 부품간 간섭을 최소화기 위해서 3D 공차 해석의 민감도 분석결과를 토대로 drain의 부품공차를 수정하였다. 개선 공차 반영 해석결과 불량률이 0.03%로 크게 감소함을 확인하였다. 또한, 개선공차 반영 시 에어컨 작동 중 열 변형이 발생하여도 부품간 간섭이 발생하지 않음을 FEA를 통해 검증하였다.

This study is focused on simulation-based dimensional tolerance optimization process (DTOP) to minimize vehicle pulls by reduction of dimensional variation in front suspension system. In previous studies, the effect of tires and wheel alignment sensitivity have mainly been investigated to eliminate vehicle pulls in nominal design condition without allocating optimal tolerance level for selected components, among various factors regarding vehicle pulls such as vehicle design parameters, vehicle weight balance, tires, and environmental factors. Unfortunately, there are wide variations in the real vehicle, and these have impacted actual vehicle pulls, especially wheel alignment effects from suspension geometry variation has not been considered in the previous studies. In the tolerance design of suspension, tolerance variables with the uncertainty such as parts dimensional variation, assembly process, datum position and direction, and assembly tool tolerance has a great influence on the variation of the suspension dimensional performances. This study introduces total vehicle pull prediction model in considering major key factors for vehicle pull sensitivity. The Monte Carlo-based tolerance analysis model using Taguchi robust method is developed to optimize dimensional tolerance parameters, satisfying on the target variation level.

This paper addresses an analytical approach to the mechanical error analysis and tolerance design of a four-bar path generator with lubricated joints. The mobility method is applied to consider lubrication effects and the four-bar path generator is stochastically modeled by using the clearance vector model for methanical error analysis. To show the validity of the proposed method, the mechanical errors obtained by applying the method to a four-bar path generator are compared with those by Monte Carlo simulation. Based on this analytical method, an optimal tolerance design problem is formulated and solved for the four-bar path generator.

Every mechanical component is fabricated with the variations in its size and shape, and the allowable range of the variation is specified by the tolerance in the design stage. Geometric tolerances specify the size or the thickness of each shape entity itself or its relative position and orientation with respect to datums. Since the range of shape variation can be represented by the variation of the coordinate system attached to the shape, the transformation matrix of the coordinate system would mathematically express the range of shape variation if the interval numbers are inserted for the elements of the transformation matrix. For the shape entity specified by the geometric tolerance with reference to datums, its range of variation can be also derived by propagating the transformation matrices composed of interval numbers. The propagation depends upon the order of precedence of datums.

다구찌 방법을 이용하여 안정거울 시스템의 민감도 해석, 강건설계 및 공차설계를 행하였다. 민감도 해석을 통해 안정거울 시스템의 안정화 성능에 크게 영향을 미치는 7개의 중요한 설계변수를 도출하였다. $m_{M}$이 안정화 성능에 가장 크게 영향을 주므로 공차범위를 줄여야 한다. $m_{M}$, $m_{B}$, $K_{MB}$ , $p_{3}$, $b_{3}$는 공차범위가 크게 안정화 성능에 영향을 미치지 못함을 알 수 있다. 기타의 변수들은 각각 하한공차 및 상한공차로 주어진다.

본 논문에서는 Q-polynomial을 이용한 Korsch 망원경의 비구면 반사경 공차 분석을 진행하였다. 고해상도 인공위성의 비구면 반사경은 고정밀 제작이 요구되어 품질을 평가하기 위한 공차 분석이 중요하다. 따라서 비구면을 각 계수항들이 독립적인 Q-polynomial로 표현하고 Korsch 망원경 광학계의 공차 분석을 진행하였다. 또한 비구면 반사경에 형상 오차를 Zernike fringe sag로 부여하여 공차 분석하고 두 결과를 비교하여 Q-polynomial으로도 공차 분석할 수 있음을 확인하였다.

When designing a gear drive, designers should specify tolerances reasonably considering accuracy, cost, and manufacturing capability. In field design, however, designers mostly assign adequate tolerance without correlations between parts and assembly, resulting in iterative design dependent on experts know-how. In order to resolve this, the tolerance design system for a cylindrical gear drive is developed both to support tolerance design automation and to synthesize design processes of part and assembly tolerances. In this research, part tolerances are designed with the databases constructed by ISO, Ks, JIS and bearing catalogue, Assemble tolerance, that is, backlash tolerance is designed by synthesizing part design tolerances stochastically using the formulated assembly relations. This system can include part tolerance and fitting accuracy of shaft adn bearing in practical design. In addition, this system provides field-designers with a synthetic guideline for tolerance design of a gear drive.

The central seam, the vertical 'line' between doors, in the front view of a refrigerator must have its gap and flush within certain ranges to meet functional and aesthetic requirements. The conventional criteria for gap and flush control in the industry are to keep the gap and flush within certain ranges at each of various points along the seam. For aesthetics, however, the uniformity of the gap is also as important because a 'tapered' seam is negatively perceived by human eyes. This paper shows a case study of tolerance design for a refrigerator door system. It presents a step-by-step procedure, which consists of datum flow chain analysis, identification of assembly features, computer modeling of feature tolerances, assembly operations and measurements, tolerance simulation, and tolerance adjustments based on the simulation results. It is found that extra care may need to be used to satisfy the aesthetical criterion for gap uniformity.
