Problems solved by technology

At present, the process design of this type of sheet metal parts mostly adopts a two-dimensional method, that is, using two-dimensional drawing software to manually draw the process drawings of each processing state, including blanking diagrams, milling diagrams, bending diagrams and expansion diagrams, the process design cycle It is relatively long, especially the design process of the bending diagram needs to manually draw the fitting bending line, the marking process is complicated and the accuracy is not high, and the line can only be divided equally with a single step value each time, and when the step value is adjusted again , heavy workload for repeated operations, and low design efficiency

In addition, there is no correlation between the blanking diagram, edge milling diagram, bending diagram and unfolding diagram produced by manual drawing using two-dimensional drawing software, and cannot be automatically associated and changed, and cannot accurately guarantee the consistency of process design information among various graphics Not conducive to data maintenance and management

Although the sheet metal structure design based on the 3D environment has been carried out, it can realize the associated expression problem of the 3D structure design model of the sheet metal and the corresponding unfolded model, but for the sheet metal parts, especially the continuous fitting and bending sheet metal parts, due to its process design In the process, there are many intermediate forming times of sheet metal parts, which require multiple bending operations. When designing sheet metal structures in a 3D environment, designers cannot quickly build a 3D model of a sheet metal part that contains multiple fitting bending features. It is still difficult to effectively solve the problem of rapid process design of this type of sheet metal parts by directly using the three-dimensional structure design model of sheet metal
