Modular design of machine tools based on assembly skeleton model

摘要

In order to improve the R&D efficiency and promote economic benefits for companies, facing to various customer requirements, the overall scheme design of machine tools can be divided into process field and method field. In the process field, assembly skeleton modeling method was studied based on top-down design in which design datum, shape, geometric features, physical characteristics were considered for the whole design process. In the method field, similarity based retrieval mechanism and overall scheme layout were discussed for machine tool modular design. According to these studies, the overall scheme modular design software was developed, and the design efficiency was improved by using this software.
