Abstract

According to the characteristics of fixture, a method is introduced to develop a modular fixture parts library by using visual programming language VC + +, SolidWorks API interface and configuration technology. First of all, the modular fixture Library has been established through the configuration technology of driving parameters. Secondly, it is programmed to generate a pop-up menu and SolidWorks plug-ins to achieve the module fixture parts call. At the same time, management and utilization of the modular fixture Library is completed, providing users with rapid fixture design based on 3D modeling environment, and contributing to the promotion and application of CAD technology in the machine tool industry
