摘要
Feature recognition is a process of extracting machining features which has engineering meaning from solid model, and it is a key technology of CAD/CAPP/CAM integration. This paper presents an effective and efficient methodology of recognizing machining feature. In this approach, features are classified into two categories: pocket feature and predefined feature. Different feature type adopts its special hint and heuristic rule, and is helpful to recognize intersection feature. Feature classification optimizes search algorithm and shortens search scope dramatically. Meanwhile, extension and split algorithm is used to handle intersecting feature. Moreover, feature mapping based on machining knowledge is introduced to support downstream application better. Finally, case studies with complex intersecting features prove that the developed approach has stronger recognizing ability.
