RoHS Compliance Declaration Based on RCP and XML Database

At present, more companies are going to adapt themselves to RoHS compliance and enforcement by IT technology. This paper has presented an integration framework that utilizes RoHS Compliance Declaration based on RCP (Rich Client Platform) and XML database, which uses SOAP technology to have the flexibility to complicated network environments and multiple operating systems, makes use of XML technology ,XUL (XML User Interface Language) and XML database to acquire reuse and robustness.

Advanced STEP parameterised and constrained features for reverse engineering

Reverse Engineering (RE) is a research field where physical models are digitised to be reconstructed, surface by surface, feature by feature, as a CAD model. This paper deals with features known by their mathematical equation, obtained when a touch probe based digitisation is used. The paper presents an interactive approach for RE of mechanical part. It introduces a CAD model reconstruction methodology based on new STEP AP203 ED2 standard integrating parameterised features that enables the parameterisation of the rebuilt features. This is needed for a complete integration of the new CAD model in a collaborative product development approach.
