Informatios about geometrical-technical modellers and product-
modells

A subtopic of the project WAP (knowledge-based process-planning)
at the University Kaiserslautern/CCK is the development of a 
technical-geometrical modeller.

In the process of designing operations should not occur on geometric
objects (point, line, circle etc.) but on technical objects (shaft, 
slot, hole, etc.), which are nearer to the designers' world of ideas.
Further these technical operations and objects are transformed in 
geometric ones.

Now I have to look for a universal system for rotational and if
possible for prismatic pieces, which can be realized in a 
generalized workpiece-representation.

Question: Who works at a similar scope of duties and might give
          me information ?

Thanks in advance!
