METHOD, SYSTEM AND PROGRAM FOR EVALUATING ASSEMBLABILITY

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an assemblability evaluation system for extracting data used in evaluation from three-dimensional CAD data, and facilitating input for evaluation by providing an input to achieve functions used in other process, post-process, or auxiliary process, while actually using the functions. SOLUTION: This method captures three-dimensional CAD data, accepts an operation of a user for creating animation, records motion of components by the operation accepted, generates evaluation data from the motion, and obtains an evaluation result by substituting the generated evaluation data in a prepared evaluation formula. Only the input for creating animation in assembling is required to the user, so that the evaluation data is automatically generated after creating the animation, to provide the evaluation result, thereby remarkably reducing the user's load for input.
