COMPUTER TECHNOLOGY FOR VALVE AND ACCESSORY DESIGNERS AND MANUFACTURERS

摘要

The foundation of commercial success of industrial enterprises, including those manufacturing valves and accessories, is constant updating of their products. The valve and accessory development process can be considered effective only if it makes possible rapid translation of designer's ideas into real products. Here comes computer technology to the aid of valve and accessory designers and manufacturers as it helps minimize the preparation time for manufacture of new products. The SolidWorks system is designed to solve most of the problems facing engineers in all stages of creation of complex engineering articles. A flexible structure of the system, which includes an array of functional modules from supporting manufacturers and a basic core of CAD (computer-aided design) program, is the SolidWorks module designed to create computer models of solid bodies and to produce design documents in Microsoft Windows. It helps work out optimum solution to specific problems facing designers, engineers, and manufacturers, and also helps reduce cost substantially at every operation point.
