Exterior Design Of Machining Center Study

With the development of science and evolution of society, human beings are pursuing richer material life and higher spiritual enjoyment. As to the preference of industrial products, people no longer simply care for functional perfection of the products, but pay more attention to the beauty in their design and the ease of operation. Industrial Designing (ID) has become one of the major means to improve the competitiveness of a certain product. To apply practical, reasonable designing method is a guarantee to improve the efficiency and success of product development.This paper deals with the limitations of conventional designing methods, and introduces the user-oriented method. Then the author explores the detailed procedures and methods in user-oriented industrial designing, and he further discusses the major principles of machine tool designed with CATIA, the practical functions of CATIA and part of the procedures in designing machine tool with CATIA. After the analysis of conventional designing of digitally-controlled machine tool, the author advances his general idea of new designing approach to digitally-controlled machine tool. The new designing approach emphasizes application of virtual designing, green designing, parallel designing; it also emphasizes the application of Computer-Aided Designing (CAD) with the example of CATIA; besides, it stresses the harmony of human, machine and environment. Hence detailed procedures and methods in designing the outer looking of digitally-controlled machine tool are proposed.This thesis paper takes T5650 processing centre of Kunming Machine Tool Factory for example, and with modern industrial designing methods provides scientific basis for it. Through CAD, the paper also proposes specific new designing plans for the processing centre, designs modules and works out detailed virtual picture.The paper summarizes characteristics and general approaches ofdesigning digitally-controlled machine tool and the evaluation of designing digitally-controlled machine tool. It analyzes the major characteristics of Computer-Aided Industrial Designing(CAID), and applies CAID to digitally-controlled machine tool designing, then produces three-dimensional virtual picture and works out the structured designing of the best scheme.
