Development of Casting Process CAD System for Valve Body
In accordance with the fundamental idea of parametric design and modularization,a 3D CAD system of casting process for valve body was developed based on 3D solid modeling of Pro/E,and using Pro/E’s application program interface Pro/TOOLK as program developing tools.At the same time,according to enterprises’cases and experience,a casting engineering database consisting with design require and corresponding with the actual needs was developed.The whole system can design and optimize the process rapidly and accurately,advance designing enfficiency,optimize design and increase casting yield.
