On the Characteristics of Virtual Design of Manipulators


The virtual design and simulation system of a robotic arm is actually composed of two main parts. Do you know the characteristics of the virtual design of a robotic arm? The editor of the robotic arm will explain below



Naming rules standard. The design of virtual products requires the participation of a large number of cross professional personnel. In terms of the virtual design of picking robots mentioned in this article, the attribute naming of components in virtual product modeling and simulation needs to be consistent and standardized. The naming convention standard adopted in this article comprehensively considers both mechanical and software design perspectives, and specifies the naming convention for parts of the same or similar size, function, and material in different parts of the robotic arm during program design.



Parameterizing the feature attributes of the robotic arm facilitates attribute management in various stages of robotic arm design, and makes the design faster. When users modify or optimize a component, they only need to modify its corresponding feature parameters. The system modifies and updates the design by implementing real-time communication between VC++and Solidwork. For example, to modify a component of a robotic arm, the CAD design drawing of the part is modified through the human-machine interaction design interface of the program. After the modification, it is proofread and stored in the database.



Reuse of design knowledge. Users can generate new design knowledge or new components by recombining or partially modifying existing knowledge.



The virtual design characteristics of the robotic arm are compatible with its functions, which is beneficial for improving the work efficiency of the robotic arm.
