In order to improve the quality and efficiency of assembly sequence planning for complex mechanical product, a converse method-based approach for assembly sequence planning is proposed. Firstly, the disassembly interference matrix of product and the disassembly constraint degree of part are defined. Product disassembly sequence is obtained through geometry reasoning algorithm and the searching work of disassembly sequence is simplified by the contact constraint set. Secondly, the maneuverability of tool is inspected through the using matrix and interference matrix of assembly tool. The infeasible disassembly sequence is excluded and product assembly sequence is obtained by reversing the order of disassembly sequence. Thirdly, the evaluation mechanism for assembly sequence is established to get the optimal assembly sequence and the optimal assembly sequence is selected by calculating the value of evaluation function. Finally, a vibration generator is illustrated to verify the validity and feasibility of the proposed approach.
