More Information
Summary:A method and apparatus for automatically assembling components in a computer-aided design (CAD) environment is disclosed. In one embodiment, the method includes identifying a source component and a target component in the CAD environment. The source component and the target component represent different parts of a real-world object. The method also includes computing one or more assembly solutions for assembling the source component and the target component based on a set of rules. Each of the assembly solutions defines a constraint relationship between the source component and the target component. The method also includes automatically generating constraints between geometric entities of the source component and geometric entities of the target component based on the one or more assembly solutions. The method includes outputting a geometric model including the assembled source component and target component on a graphical user interface.
