对可视化设计计算系统的内涵、特点以及开发流程进行了综合性研究。以3-TPT并联运动机床为研究实例,利用VB开发了该机床的运动学可视化设计系统。该系统以可视化的界面接收用户输入的参数,可以快速实现机床的位置、速度、加速度的计算与仿真,并能以位图动画的形式模拟机床的运动状态。实践表明,开发可视化设计系统能将研究成果快速应用于工程设计。
The connotation, characteristics, and technical flow of visual design and calculation system were researched synthetically. On the basis of these,a 3-TPT parallel machine tool was taken as study case and the visual design system of kinematics was developed by VB. This system can receive the parameters relying on visual interfaces and rapidly realize calculation and simulation of position, velocity and acceleration. Furthermore, the system can also simulate motion status of the parallel machine tool utilized bitmap animation. Practice indicates that opening visual design system is an effective measure to make research results be applied fast in the engineering practical design.
