Research and Development of Vibroflotation Device Design System Based on Knowledge Based Engineering

To improve the efficiency and design quality of vibro flotation device design, this paper builds a rapid design system based on KBE (Knowledge Based Engineering) for Vibroflotation device, offers a way to implement KPT (Knowledge Processing Technology) and establish the framework of the system. The knowledge base system is embedded into all the design process. Moreover, according to the requirement of automatic design, both the CAD/CAE integration and automatically extraction of mass parameters are realized based on uniform product model and secondary development of 3D modeling software and homogeneous coordinate transformation, respectively. Then the final KBE based vibro flotation device system is built. Our system not only reduces the development cycle and complexity of vibro flotation device but also improves its quality of design, effectively.
