Study on Rapid Variable-Type Design Method of Gantry Crane Based on Templates

Abstract

To solve the problem such as large amounts of repeated designs and long design cycle in the traditional design process of crane, the principles of variable-type design were illustrated detailed on the background of holographic model, a series of key variable-type design technologies were introduced based on template concept, including parameter link technology of module interface, assembly sketch technology, coding techniques of assembly configuration, parametric finite element analysis technology etc. These methods have been applied to the design case of gantry crane, it proves that these methods can enhance the system reusability, improve the design efficiency of products and make the design results more perfect, and has achieved desired outcome.
