产品装配技术的研究现状, 技术内涵及发展趋势

With the rapid development of precision and ultra-precision machining technology at home and abroad, precision and consistency of machined parts have been improved prominently. Hence, the assembly process is playing a more and more important role in assuring the performance of assembled products, and the related research is gaining widespread attention. However, domestic research on the products assembly technology is relatively lagging and lacks a comprehensive research system. Based on the state-of-the-art of the products assembly technology, its classification and connotation is elaborated, and a comprehensive research framework of the products assembly technology is established. Based thereon, the basic research contents of the framework are discussed, including design for assembly, assembly process design and simulation, assembly process equipment, assembly measurement, assembly workshop management, etc. Finally, the developing trends of the products assembly technology, i.e., integration, precision, micro-nano, intelligence, are pointed out.
