Development for Parametric Design System of Packaging Carton Based on Visual Basic and AutoCAD Platform

摘要

Aiming at the complicated design process and expensive design software of packaging carton, the completely parametric design system of packaging carton was developed according to the general method and model of structural design and the general form of the graphic display and output of packaging carton on the Visual Basic and AutoCAD platform. A new design pattern for packaging carton was formed in this system, which can design the structural graphic of packaging carton on the Visual Basic and exhibit it in the AutoCAD. Its workflow accorded with traditional one. The system can remedy the limitation of design process, improve design efficiency, and reduce the design cost.
