Horizontally structured CAD/CAM modeling
Abstract
A method for converting a vertically structured CAD/CAM Model (10) to a horizontally structured CAD/CAM Model, comprising: identifying and establishing a base feature (12); establishing a parent coordinate system (20); identifying a parent modeling element; identifying each dependency for each feature from the parent modeling element (13a); restructuring each dependency for each feature (14) for placement, such that each feature (14) exhibits a direct associative relationship with a reference feature; and restructuring each dependency for each feature (14) for positioning, such that each feature (14) exhibits a direct associative relationship with another reference feature.
