Design and simulation of component-based manufacturing machine systems

摘要: Abstract This paper presents the modular machine design environment (MMDE), a software that enables `virtual design/engineering' of component-based manufacturing systems. It consists suite highly integrated tools supporting visualisation, design, programming, verification and evaluation systems built from mechanical, electronic components/modules in virtual environment. Using three-dimensional (3-D) graphical simulation with number add-on tools, MMDE supports both physical model control logic for and/or re-configuring to satisfy new or changed application/customer requirements before any real implementation is made. System techniques, industrial test case are covered detail.
