[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of computer-aided design, and in particular to a process model generation method and system for a new energy sheet metal process. Background Art
[0002] As the world's attention to environmental protection and energy resources continues to intensify, the new energy vehicle industry is developing rapidly as an emerging green transportation solution. New energy vehicles are not only required to have excellent performance and safety, but also to meet strict environmental standards. This forces manufacturers to continuously optimize various processes during the production process to ensure the quality and reliability of the vehicle. In particular, the manufacturing of sheet metal parts, as an important part of new energy vehicles, the optimization of its process flow has a vital impact on the overall product quality. The core processes involved in sheet metal technology include stamping, bending, welding, assembly and other links. Traditional sheet metal process flows are usually based on experience and conventional engineering technology, which is difficult to meet the requirements of new energy vehicles for high precision, high consistency and complex structures of sheet metal parts. In addition, traditional methods are insufficient in dealing with component deformation, which easily leads to error accumulation in the manufacturing process, affecting the assembly accuracy and performance of the final product. Summary of the invention
[0003] Based on this, it is necessary for the present invention to provide a process model generation method and system for new energy sheet metal processes to solve at least one of the above technical problems.
[0004] To achieve the above purpose, a method for generating a process model of a new energy sheet metal process comprises the following steps:
[0005] Step S1: acquiring historical new energy vehicle body manufacturing data, and extracting vehicle body component structural features from the historical new energy vehicle body manufacturing data, thereby obtaining new energy vehicle body component structural data; performing new energy vehicle component topological structure analysis based on the new energy vehicle body component structural data, thereby obtaining a new energy vehicle component topological structure model;
[0006] Step S2: extracting sheet metal process features from historical new energy vehicle body manufacturing data to obtain body manufacturing sheet metal process data, and performing sheet metal process flow structure modeling based on the body manufacturing sheet metal process data to obtain a process flow structure model;
[0007] Step S3: estimating the sheet metal structure deformation of the process flow for the historical new energy vehicle body manufacturing data based on the process flow structure model, thereby obtaining the sheet metal structure deformation data of the process flow; calculating the sheet metal structure deformation influencing factor for the body manufacturing sheet metal process data and the sheet metal structure deformation data of the process flow, thereby obtaining the sheet metal structure deformation influencing factor;
[0008] Step S4: using the process flow structure model to simulate the new energy vehicle component docking process on the new energy vehicle component topology structure model, thereby obtaining new energy vehicle component docking simulation data; performing component docking accuracy error evaluation on the new energy vehicle component docking simulation data, thereby obtaining docking component accuracy error data;
[0009] Step S5: Perform component docking precision error process identification based on the docking component precision error data and the sheet metal structure deformation influencing factors to obtain precision error process data, and optimize process parameters of the process flow structure model based on the precision error process data to obtain a sheet metal process flow optimization model.
[0010] The present invention can establish an accurate component topology model by extracting the structural features of the body parts of new energy vehicles and performing topological structure analysis. This lays the foundation for subsequent process optimization and precision improvement, ensuring that the component design is more in line with actual production requirements. The extracted structural data enables the manufacturing process to be adjusted more scientifically based on historical data, thereby reducing the influence of subjective experience and improving the scientificity and accuracy of design and manufacturing. Through the topological structure model, the structural characteristics of key components can be identified, providing a clear basis for the subsequent sheet metal process feature extraction. Sheet metal process feature extraction and process flow structure modeling can establish a detailed process flow structure model, which helps manufacturers understand and optimize the impact of each process step, thereby improving overall production efficiency and product quality. Through detailed analysis of sheet metal process data, the sources of errors in traditional process flows can be identified and reduced, and the consistency and controllability of the process can be improved. The process flow model with detailed data support can provide a scientific basis for improving the process flow, making the optimization of sheet metal processes more accurate and effective. The deformation estimation based on the process flow structure model can predict the deformation of components in actual production, help manufacturers take measures in advance to adjust and control, and reduce problems in production. By calculating the influencing factors of sheet metal structure deformation, it is possible to identify which factors have the greatest impact on the deformation, so as to make targeted process improvements and improve the dimensional stability and quality of the product. Understanding and controlling the influencing factors of sheet metal structure deformation can help improve the stability and consistency of the production process and reduce uncertainty and errors in production. Through component docking process simulation, the errors that may occur in the docking process can be understood in real time, and the process parameters can be adjusted in time to improve the accuracy of component docking. Accuracy error assessment helps identify and solve problems that may occur in actual production, optimize the process of component docking, and ensure that the quality of the final product meets the standards. Through the accurate assessment of docking accuracy, rework caused by non-compliance of components can be reduced and production efficiency can be improved. According to the analysis of the accuracy error data of docking components and the influencing factors of sheet metal structure deformation, the accuracy errors in the process can be accurately identified to help formulate more effective improvement strategies. Optimizing process parameters according to accuracy error process data can improve the production process, improve the assembly accuracy of components and the overall product quality. The optimized process flow model can effectively reduce errors and defects in production, improve production efficiency, and reduce material waste and production costs. In summary, through the implementation of the above steps, the manufacturing process of sheet metal parts for new energy vehicles can be significantly optimized, improving the consistency of component quality and the stability of the production process.

The obtained sheet metal process flow and parameter data can provide a basis for subsequent process optimization, thereby improving production efficiency and product quality. By identifying abnormal parameters, problems in the production process can be discovered in time to avoid unqualified products. Abnormal parameter correction helps to reduce production rework caused by parameter deviation, saving time and resources. Improve the consistency and stability of process parameters to ensure the stability of production and the reliability of the final product. Trend analysis can predict possible process problems in the future, take measures in advance, and perform preventive maintenance.

[0062] The present invention extracts the structural features of component accuracy errors to identify the pattern and distribution of errors, such as whether the errors are concentrated in certain components or areas. This helps to understand the root causes of the errors, provides detailed data support for subsequent accuracy analysis and optimization, and facilitates in-depth analysis of the sources and influencing factors of the errors. The statistical accuracy error amount can distinguish the errors into high-precision errors and low-precision errors. This classification helps to clarify which components or connection points have higher errors, and giving priority to solving these problems can significantly improve the overall assembly quality. Providing quantitative data on the error amount makes it more accurate to evaluate the severity and impact of the errors, which helps to formulate specific improvement measures. By classifying the proportion of high-precision error amount structures and low-precision error amount structures, it is possible to preferentially identify components or structures with a higher proportion of errors. This sorting helps to concentrate resources and energy to solve the most critical error problems. Clarifying the error amount structure with a high proportion can provide targeted improvement directions and help the design and production teams to make effective adjustments and optimizations. Through the structural correlation analysis of the high-precision and low-precision error-proportion component data, the specific components and structures where the errors occur can be more accurately identified and located, thereby providing a strong basis for improving the design and process. This correlation analysis helps to optimize component design and docking processes, reduce precision errors, and improve the matching degree between components, thereby improving the performance and reliability of the overall system. Combining the high-precision and low-precision error docking component data can provide a comprehensive view of docking accuracy errors. This allows for a more comprehensive understanding and evaluation of the errors in the assembly process. The comprehensive error data enables the overall error distribution and impact to be considered when formulating improvement measures, ensuring that the optimization measures can effectively improve the overall assembly accuracy and enhance product quality.

[0067] Step S54: optimizing the process flow structure model for minimum precision error of process parameters according to the precision error process data, thereby obtaining a sheet metal process flow optimization model.
[0068] The present invention can accurately obtain the actual error data of each component by extracting the precision error structural characteristics of the component. These data can help identify and analyze the error sources in the manufacturing process, and the high-precision error data provides reliable basic data for subsequent process optimization. It ensures that the follow-up is carried out on the basis of accurate errors, thereby improving the overall optimization effect, clarifying the error characteristics of the component, and helping to accurately determine the optimization target and scope, avoiding blind optimization. By extracting the component structure process parameters, the role and performance of each component in the process can be clearly understood. This helps to identify which process steps have the greatest impact on the error, making the analysis of the source of the error more systematic, and can associate the error data with the specific parameters of the process, so as to locate the problem more effectively. Obtaining process parameter data helps to more accurately control the variables in the production process and improve the overall quality and consistency of the product. By performing correlation analysis on the influencing factors of the sheet metal structure deformation variable, it is possible to deeply understand how each process parameter affects the error. This in-depth analysis helps to find the root cause of the error. By understanding the specific performance of the error influencing factors, the process can be adjusted in a targeted manner to reduce the error, thereby improving product accuracy and production efficiency. By optimizing the process parameters for minimum precision error, an optimization model for a specific process can be obtained. This model helps to achieve the lowest error in the production process and improve the quality and consistency of the product. The optimized process can more effectively control and reduce errors, thereby improving production efficiency, reducing scrap rate and rework costs. Reducing errors in the production process not only improves product quality, but also may reduce production costs, thereby improving the economic benefits of the enterprise.

For example, computer vision technology or CAD model is used to analyze these data to extract the structural features of the body components, such as the specific size and position of the crossbeam, A-pillar, B-pillar, etc. For example, if the front crossbeam of a certain model is 70 cm wide and 3 cm thick, these data will be recorded as structural feature data.
[0098] Step S12: extracting structural material features from the structural data of the new energy vehicle body parts to obtain body structure material data, and performing material property analysis based on the body structure material data to obtain body structure material property data;
[0099] In this embodiment, the structural material data of the new energy vehicle body parts are analyzed to extract the material type (such as high-strength steel, aluminum alloy, etc.), thickness, density and other characteristics. The material properties are analyzed through material tests (such as tensile tests, hardness tests), and the material strength, toughness, ductility and other data are obtained. For example, the tensile strength of high-strength steel is 600 MPa and the thickness is 2 mm. These data will be used for structural material property analysis.
[0100] Step S13: classifying the body component structure data of the new energy vehicle according to the body component structure connection mode, thereby obtaining component structure welding data and component structure splicing data;
[0101] In this embodiment, the connection methods of the body component structure are classified to identify different connection methods such as welding, bolt connection, and riveting. Using the data of the connection method, a welding data set (such as weld length, weld point location) and a splicing data set (such as splicing edge, overlapping area) are created. For example, the A-pillar of the body is laser welded, and the weld length is 50 cm, which will be recorded as welding data.
[0102] Step S14: integrating the structural connection relationship of the vehicle body components according to the component structure welding data and the component structure splicing data, thereby obtaining the structural connection data of the vehicle body components;
[0103] In this embodiment, the welding data and splicing data of the component structure are integrated to analyze the connection relationship between the body components. The connection map of the body components is constructed by combining the welding and splicing data. For example, the front cross beam is connected to the A-pillar by welding and connected to the body side panel by riveting. These data will form the body component structure connection data.

[0105] In this embodiment, a topological structure analysis is performed based on the structural connection data of the body parts to establish a topological structure model of the body parts. Combined with material property data, such as the distribution of high-strength steel and aluminum alloy, a complete topological structure model is integrated. For example, the topological structure model of the body parts shows that the strength area of the front of the body is concentrated at the A-pillar and the front crossbeam. These data will form the final topological structure model of the new energy vehicle parts.

[0107] Step S131: classifying the component structure data of the new energy vehicle body to obtain the connection component structure data and the main component structure data;
[0108] In this embodiment, the three-dimensional data of all components are extracted from the body CAD model of the new energy vehicle. These components may include body frames, door panels, front fenders, etc. Using machine learning algorithms (such as cluster analysis), these components are classified according to their geometric shapes and functional characteristics. Component structure classification is based on the shape characteristics (such as rectangles, circles), functions (such as supports, covers) or materials (such as steel, aluminum alloys) of the components. For example, all body frame components are classified as "connection components", and door panels and fenders are classified as "main components". Thereby, the structural data of the connection components and the structural data of the main components are obtained.
[0109] Step S132: extracting the main component structure connection structure features from the main component structure data, thereby obtaining the main component connection structure data, and calculating the connection structure similarity between the component connection structure data and the main component connection structure data, thereby obtaining the connection structure similarity data;
[0110] In this embodiment, structural connection features are extracted from the main component data. Assuming that the main components include a door and a roof, the connection structure of these components may involve welding points, bolt holes, etc. The geometric shape of the connection structure is modeled using feature extraction techniques, such as edge detection and image segmentation. At the same time, the connection structure feature data is generated by calculating the connection point position and angle between the main components. Then, a similarity calculation algorithm (such as Euclidean distance or cosine similarity) is applied to compare the component connection structure data with the main component connection structure data, thereby obtaining the connection structure similarity data. For example, the similarity between the door and the roof in the position and angle of the welding point is calculated.
[0111] Step S133: integrating the component structure splicing relationship of the connection component structure data and the main component structure data according to the connection structure similarity data, thereby obtaining component structure splicing data;
[0112] In this embodiment, the obtained connection structure similarity data is used to integrate the component structure splicing relationship. Assuming that the connection structure similarity data indicates that the door and the body frame have a high degree of similarity, the system will automatically infer that these components may use similar splicing methods (such as welding or bolting). These splicing relationships are integrated into a splicing relationship diagram, including the splicing method and position of the door and the body frame in the example. Finally, the component structure splicing data is obtained, which is used to guide the production and assembly process.
[0113] Step S134: performing component structure roughness calculation on the main component structure data to obtain component structure roughness data, and performing structure roughness threshold statistics based on the component structure roughness data to obtain a structure roughness threshold;
[0114] In this embodiment, the surface roughness of the main component (such as the door panel) is calculated. The surface of the component is scanned with high precision using laser scanning technology to obtain surface point cloud data. The roughness value of the component is calculated using a surface roughness measurement algorithm (such as Ra, Rz, etc.). According to the calculation results, the roughness of the component is statistically analyzed by thresholds to determine the allowable range of the roughness. For example, the roughness threshold of the door panel is set to Ra = 1.5 μm, and the data with a calculated roughness value higher than this threshold will be marked as a high-roughness structure.
[0115] Step S135: clustering the main component structure data into high-roughness structures according to the structure roughness threshold, thereby obtaining high-roughness structure data;
[0116] In this embodiment, based on the obtained roughness data and threshold, the main component data is clustered for high roughness structures. For example, through the K-means clustering algorithm, components with surface roughness higher than Ra=1.5μm are marked as high roughness structures. Assuming that the roughness of some areas of the door panel exceeds the threshold due to welding, these areas will be classified as high roughness structure data.
[0117] Step S136: Integrate the high-roughness structure connection relationship of the main component structure data according to the high-roughness structure data, so as to obtain component structure welding data.
[0118] In this embodiment, the connection relationship of the high roughness structure of the main parts is integrated according to the obtained high roughness structure data. Assuming that the high roughness structure is mainly concentrated in the connection area of the door, the specific data of the connection method (such as welding) between the door and the body frame are integrated through the analysis of these areas. This includes detailed modeling of the welding points in the high roughness area and generating component structure welding data. These data will be used to optimize the production process to ensure that the processing of the high roughness area meets the quality standards.

[0121] In this embodiment, the body manufacturing data of historical new energy vehicles is clustered for body mode manufacturing process analysis. The body manufacturing data is divided into different body mode categories through clustering algorithms (such as K-means or DBSCAN). Then, the sheet metal process flow and sheet metal process parameter feature extraction is performed on the body mode data of each category, and the key sheet metal process flow features and parameter features are extracted using feature selection techniques (such as principal component analysis), and finally the sheet metal process flow data and sheet metal process parameter data are formed. For example, the forming process steps, material thickness, stamping pressure and other data of each body mode are extracted.

[0123] In this embodiment, sheet metal process parameter data is used to identify abnormal sheet metal process parameters. Abnormal sheet metal process parameters are identified through statistical analysis (such as Z-score) or machine learning methods (such as anomaly detection algorithms). The identified abnormal parameters are corrected, and correction algorithms (such as regression model correction) are applied to adjust the abnormal parameters to ensure data accuracy. For example, if the stamping thickness of a certain body part exceeds the standard abnormally, the thickness is adjusted to the normal range to obtain sheet metal process correction parameter data.
[0124] Step S23: performing a body mode sheet metal process parameter trend analysis according to the sheet metal process correction parameter data, thereby obtaining body mode sheet metal process parameter trend data;

Time series analysis (such as ARIMA model) or data visualization tools are used to analyze the changing trend of sheet metal process parameters of the body mode over time, and the sheet metal process parameter trend data of the body mode is generated. For example, the stamping pressure changing trend of different body modes in different production cycles is analyzed.
[0126] Step S24: integrating the process parameters of the sheet metal process data according to the sheet metal process parameter trend data of the vehicle body model, thereby obtaining the sheet metal process data of the vehicle body manufacturing;
[0127] In this embodiment, the sheet metal process flow data is integrated using the trend data of the sheet metal process parameters of the body mode. Data fusion technology (such as weighted average or data fusion algorithm) is used to integrate the process flow data of different body modes to form comprehensive body manufacturing sheet metal process data. For example, different process parameters obtained in the trend analysis are weighted and integrated to generate the final sheet metal process flow data set.
[0128] Step S25: Perform sheet metal process flow structure modeling according to the body manufacturing sheet metal process data, so as to obtain a process flow structure model.
[0129] In this embodiment, a process flow structure model is established based on the sheet metal process data of the body manufacturing. The process flow structure model is constructed using modeling technology (such as process modeling tools or graph theory methods), and the process steps and their relationships are defined to form a detailed process flow structure model. For example, a structure diagram of the sheet metal process flow is drawn using UML (Unified Modeling Language) or a flowchart tool to represent the input and output of each step and the connection relationship between them.
[0130] Optionally, step S22 is specifically:
[0131] Step S221: performing frequency domain conversion on the sheet metal process parameter data to obtain a sheet metal process parameter spectrum;
[0132] In this embodiment, the original process parameters (such as vibration, pressure, temperature, etc.) collected during the sheet metal processing are converted into the frequency domain through fast Fourier transform (FFT). Assuming that the original data is a time series, collected 1000 times per second, FFT converts these data into a spectrum to show the amplitude of different frequency components. Specifically, the collected signal data is analyzed using the FFT algorithm to obtain a spectrum diagram, in which the X-axis represents the frequency and the Y-axis represents the amplitude.
[0133] Step S222: integrating the frequency amplitude characteristics according to the sheet metal process parameter spectrum, thereby obtaining the sheet metal process frequency amplitude data;
[0134] In this embodiment, the amplitude information of the frequency components is extracted from the obtained spectrum. Assuming that the spectrum shows the amplitudes of different frequencies, the frequency amplitude data is obtained by calculating the total amplitude of each frequency range and integrating them. For example, the frequency range is divided into low, medium, and high frequency bands, and the amplitude value of each frequency band is calculated to form a feature vector containing the amplitude data of these frequency bands.
[0135] Step S223: performing frequency amplitude threshold statistics based on the sheet metal process frequency amplitude data, thereby obtaining the sheet metal process frequency amplitude threshold;
[0136] In this embodiment, the obtained frequency amplitude data is statistically analyzed to determine the amplitude threshold of each frequency segment. For example, a threshold standard is set, the average value and standard deviation of the frequency amplitude are calculated based on historical normal data, and a threshold higher than the mean plus two times the standard deviation is set as the abnormality detection standard. In this way, the amplitude threshold of each frequency segment can be determined.
[0137] Step S224: clustering the abnormal frequency amplitude spectrum of the sheet metal process parameter spectrum according to the sheet metal process frequency amplitude threshold, so as to obtain the sheet metal process abnormal frequency amplitude spectrum;
[0138] In this embodiment, cluster analysis is performed on the obtained spectrum data according to the determined frequency amplitude threshold. The frequency amplitude data is divided into normal and abnormal spectrum classes using the K-means clustering algorithm. For example, if the amplitude of a certain frequency segment exceeds the threshold, it is marked as abnormal, and these abnormal frequency amplitude data are aggregated into an abnormal spectrum graph.
[0139] Step S225: performing time domain conversion on the abnormal frequency amplitude spectrum of the sheet metal process, thereby obtaining abnormal sheet metal process parameter data;
[0140] In this embodiment, the obtained abnormal frequency amplitude spectrum is subjected to inverse FFT conversion to restore it to a time domain signal. Assuming that the abnormal frequency amplitude spectrum shows abnormalities in certain frequency ranges, these spectrum data are converted back to time domain signals using inverse FFT to obtain abnormal sheet metal process parameter data. These data reflect the abnormal signal characteristics within a specific time.
[0141] Step S226: performing abnormal sheet metal process parameter correction on the sheet metal process parameter data according to the abnormal sheet metal process parameter data, thereby obtaining sheet metal process correction parameter data.
[0142] In this embodiment, the abnormal sheet metal process parameter data is used to correct the original sheet metal process parameter data. For example, by comparing the original data with the abnormal data, a data correction algorithm (such as mean correction or weighted average) is applied to adjust the process parameters to eliminate the influence of the abnormality, thereby obtaining the corrected sheet metal process parameter data. These correction data are used to optimize the subsequent process flow.
[0143] Optionally, step S3 specifically includes:

[0145] In this embodiment, in the historical new energy vehicle body manufacturing process, the sheet metal structure is first measured by using a high-precision laser scanner to obtain the actual geometric shape data of each part of the body. Then, the measured actual geometry is compared with the original design model using a computer-aided design (CAD) model. Through difference analysis, the deformation of the sheet metal structure is estimated using finite element analysis (FEA) software. This process can identify the structural deformation generated during the manufacturing process, such as the deformation of the side of the body, the front and rear bumper areas, and generate a specific deformation data set. These data will be used for subsequent process analysis and optimization.
[0146] Step S32: dividing the sheet metal structure deformation data of the vehicle body manufacturing into sheet metal structure deformation data of the process flow according to the process structure model, thereby obtaining the sheet metal structure deformation data of the process flow;
[0147] In this embodiment, based on the obtained sheet metal structure deformation data, the body sheet metal structure is divided according to different stages of the process flow. For example, the data is divided into stamping stage, welding stage and painting stage. Specifically, the deformation of each stage is classified using the process flow structure model. For the stamping stage, the deformation data during the stamping process is analyzed to extract the deformation of specific areas such as the roof or door panels; for the welding stage, the overall deformation of the body after welding is analyzed; for the painting stage, the additional deformation that may be introduced during the painting process is considered. Finally, these data are summarized to obtain detailed process flow sheet metal structure deformation data.
[0148] Step S33: performing principal component analysis on the sheet metal process data of the vehicle body manufacturing, thereby obtaining principal component combination data of sheet metal process parameters;
[0149] In this embodiment, the divided sheet metal process data is subjected to principal component analysis (PCA). First, the data of each process stage is standardized to eliminate dimensional differences. Then, the PCA algorithm is used to extract the main components, which explain the largest variance in the sheet metal process data. Assuming that the data includes parameters such as punching force, temperature, and pressure, the principal component combination data is obtained by PCA calculation, such as principal component 1 (combination of punching force and temperature) and principal component 2 (combination of pressure and temperature). These principal components will be used to build a regression model to simplify complex process data.
[0150] Step S34: constructing a linear regression mathematical model based on the sheet metal structural deformation variable data of the process flow and the principal component combination data of the sheet metal process parameters, thereby obtaining a structural deformation variable regression model;
[0151] In this embodiment, a linear regression model is constructed based on the process flow sheet metal structure deformation variable data and the principal component combination data. Assuming that principal component 1 and principal component 2 are selected as independent variables and the body deformation variable is selected as the dependent variable, a mathematical model is established using linear regression analysis. The regression model is in the form of: deformation variable = β0 + β1 * principal component 1 + β2 * principal component 2 + ε, where β0 is the intercept, β1 and β2 are regression coefficients, and ε is the error term. Through regression analysis, the degree of influence of each principal component on the sheet metal structure deformation variable is determined, and a structural deformation variable regression model is established.
[0152] Step S35: calculating the sheet metal process parameter regression coefficients for the sheet metal structure deformation variable data of the process flow and the sheet metal process parameter principal component combination data according to the structure deformation variable regression model, thereby obtaining the sheet metal process parameter regression coefficient data;
[0153] In this embodiment, the constructed linear regression model is used to calculate the regression coefficients of the process flow sheet metal structure deformation variable data and the sheet metal process parameter principal component combination data. Specifically, the actual data is substituted and the regression coefficient is calculated using the regression model. For example, if the regression coefficient of principal component 1 is 0.5 and the regression coefficient of principal component 2 is 0.3, then these coefficients will show the degree of influence of the sheet metal process parameters on the body deformation variable. The regression coefficient data will help identify the process parameters that have a significant impact on the sheet metal structure deformation variable.
[0154] Step S36: Select parameters influencing the sheet metal structure deformation variable based on the sheet metal process parameter regression coefficient data, so as to obtain the sheet metal structure deformation variable influencing factors.
[0155] In this embodiment, the selection of influencing factors of sheet metal structure deformation variables is performed based on the obtained sheet metal process parameter regression coefficient data. By analyzing the regression coefficient, the parameters with the greatest impact on the deformation variables are identified. For example, if the regression coefficients of certain process parameters are significantly higher than other parameters, it can be inferred that these parameters have a greater impact on the body deformation variables. Assuming that the regression coefficients of stamping temperature and pressure are significantly higher than other parameters, these two parameters are selected as influencing factors. Finally, the main influencing factors of sheet metal structure deformation variables are summarized and confirmed to optimize and improve the manufacturing process.

The error of each docking point is calculated using an error analysis algorithm (such as the least squares method), and then these errors are statistically analyzed to evaluate the overall docking accuracy. This process can represent the simulated docking accuracy error data through an error graph or a statistical indicator (such as the root mean square error).
[0165] Step S45: evaluating the docking component accuracy error of the new energy vehicle component splicing structure model according to the simulated docking accuracy error data, thereby obtaining the docking component accuracy error data.

An error analysis tool is used to identify and quantify the sources of errors in the splicing structure and to evaluate the impact of the errors. For example, an error heat map can be generated using precision evaluation software, and optimization suggestions can be made based on these data to improve the overall precision of the docking components.

Then, the actual data is compared with the design data to calculate the accuracy error of the component. Using the error data, statistical methods (such as principal component analysis or error distribution analysis) are used to extract the accuracy error structural characteristics of the component. These characteristics include error types (such as dimensional errors, shape errors) and their distribution patterns, which provide a basis for subsequent error statistics and structural analysis.
[0170] Step S452: performing structural accuracy error statistics according to the component accuracy error structural data, thereby obtaining component high-accuracy error structural data and component low-accuracy error structural data;
[0171] In this embodiment, after obtaining the precision error structure data of the component, the error is quantitatively counted through a data analysis tool (such as a data analysis library of MATLAB or Python). Specifically, the errors are classified (such as high-precision errors and low-precision errors) and the magnitude of each error is calculated. For each component, the high-precision error amount (such as an error less than 0.01 mm) and the low-precision error amount (such as an error greater than 0.01 mm but less than 0.1 mm) are counted. The statistical results will generate high-precision error amount structure data and low-precision error amount structure data of the component for subsequent error structure classification and analysis.

Cluster analysis methods (such as K-means clustering or hierarchical clustering) are used to classify the error amount, and identify components with a high proportion of high-precision error amounts (such as errors accounting for more than 90% of the total error) and components with a high proportion of low-precision error amounts (such as errors accounting for more than 60% of the total error). The classification results generate high-precision error amount structure high-proportion component data and low-precision error amount structure high-proportion component data, providing a basis for component structure association.

For example, the thermal expansion coefficient of the material, possible deformation during the processing, and other factors are considered. By establishing a mathematical model to associate these influencing factors with the process parameters, the influence of each parameter on the error is calculated. Finite element analysis software can be used to simulate and evaluate the contribution of different influencing factors to the final error.
