Abstract

Method and system for optimizing the arrangement of a set of aircraft parts on a plate. The system includes a selection module which selects, from a set of data on the material of the set of parts and a set of geometric data associated with the set of parts, part grouping criteria including at least one optimized plate thickness value, an optimization module for optimizing the arrangement of the set of parts on a plate as a function of the part grouping criteria, cutting criteria and optimization criteria and a transmission module generating and transmitting, to a user system, optimization data representative of the optimization of the arrangement of the set of parts. The system makes it possible to take account of the parameters linked to the dimensions of the plate to optimize the arrangement of the set of parts.

Dependent claims

A method for optimizing an arrangement of a set of aircraft parts on a plate, the method comprising:

a selection step, implemented by a selection module, comprising selecting at least one part grouping criterion from at least one set of material data associated with material of the set of parts and at least one set of geometric data associated with the set of parts, the at least one part grouping criterion comprising at least one optimized plate thickness value;
an optimization step, implemented by an optimization module, comprising optimizing the arrangement of the set of parts on the plate as a function of the at least one part grouping criterion, a cutting criteria and an optimization criteria;
and
a transmission step, implemented by a transmission module, comprising generating and transmitting, to a user system, optimization data representative of optimization of the arrangement of the set of parts on the plate.
