Configuration design in parallel-machine-tool virtual prototyping

Liping Wang

Abstract

Configuration and dimensional designs are the most important techniques in parallelmachinetool (PMT) design. A design flow and a system structure were developed for configuration design in PMT virtual prototyping development. The method integrates four interactional PMT configuration design methods for PMT conceptual design. A design sample was given to illustrate the key techniques in conceptual design for PMT virtual prototyping such as design requirement specification, motion dispatching, conceptual design, kinematic analysis and design, 3D modeling and simulation. A software package was developed for PMT virtual prototyping conceptual design with Unigraphics development tools (UG/Open and UG/Open++) and Visual C++.
