Hi,
there is a lot of talking about solving an assembly here within the forum.
I developed a small prototype of yet another solver. It is in a very early state now and is only capable to handle plane/circularedge/axis-constraints.
But it can easily be extended. It consist only of one file, which is attached.
The base concept is inspired by physics. Forces(Distances from point to targetpoints) will cause moves and rotations around a spin-center. Also axis-alignments will cause "torque" and cause spinning around. The solver is working iteratively.
It is just a prototype and many things are still missing. But the idea seems to work.
Have a look a the following to tests which i did.
- Test1: assembling some link-beams with circular edges
- Test2: assembling a hose-pump (with plane/circularEdges/axis-constraints)
Anyone interested? Suggestions ? Important improvements ? Someone who wants to help ?
Thanks,
kbwbe
