The microcomputer graphics software AutoCAD has been used as the supporting software of WFCAD system. By means of programming, 2-D and 3-D parameterized graphic libraries of components of welding fixture are established. With the aid of AutoCAD ' s advanced development system (ADS), menus and dialogs are constructed for convenient use of graphic library, and it also makes the system has a good man-machine interface.展开更多

This paper presents an integrated 3-D CAD/CAE system for a foundry using concurrent engineering which considers casting structure, casting type, and manufacturing properties in the CAD module to design the pouring system, the riser, the chill core and so on. A visualized solid model is developed for the casting component with the model design enhanced by CAE analysis. Heat transfer and fluid flow simulation are used to analyze the initial design. The whole product development process is analyzed using concurrent engineering methods. The application shows that the integrated system can improve the efficiency of the design and manufacturing process of die casting.展开更多
