Tolerance Optimization for Assembly Systems Based on Quality Requirements Using State Space Model

Article Preview

Abstract:

The paper proposed a new systematic method to construct the functional relationship between product quality and tolerances. In the method, a unified user-defined tolerance model is designed to synthesize different kinds of tolerances using 3-D state space model; a deviation propagation model is proposed to analyze the quality-tolerance function. Particularly, the method is suitable for any kinds of tolerances and quality requirements. The method is successfully applied to the turbo-generator stator-core lamination auto-assembly project, and Monte Carlo method is used to simulate the quality performance and optimize the target tolerances.
