RESEARCH ON PRODUCT INNOVATION DESIGN IN VIRTUAL PRODUCT DEVELOPMENT

摘要

An integrated template of virtual product development alters primarily sequential tradition mode of product lifecycle. The template integrates all processes of product development using digital modem. An environment of virtual pro-duct development provides product development environment of integration, communion, network, concurrent and col-laboration. Combining development of new rapier loom, an innovated design process is researched in virtual product de-velopment, which consists three portions: constructing an integration development environment, innovation design andmanufacturing simulation. The innovated design process realizes reverse design, mechanism concept design, structuraldesign and analysis, performalce analysis and manufacturing process simulation of virtual product, which can enhancegreatly product performance and reduce cost and development cycle of new product.
