to realize computer-aided design and 3D modeling of the classical V-belt drive, a classical V-belt drive design and 3D modeling system was developed with the SolidWorks platform and using Visual Basic language. This system is composed of the design subsystem and the 3D modeling subsystem, which enabled the classical V-belt design process to be automatic and the fast 3D modeling of parts and assemblies. The application of design and 3D modeling for the classical V-belt drive system on the pot-seedling hole-forming machine has shown that this system can ensure accurate design results and shorten the design period.

To solve the synchronous belt drive design and 3D modeling problem, a synchronous belt drive design system has been developed with the Visual Basic language and SolidWorks platform. Applications have shown that this system can realize design calculation of the synchronous belt drive and the 3D modeling of spare parts and assemblies like the small belt pulley, large belt pulley and synchronous belt, as required by the customer. Also, it has a user-friendly interface, handy operation, simple operation, and accurate design results, to effectively shorten the design period.

The rising demand for high quality castings necessitates that vast amount of manufacturing knowledge be incorporated in manufacturing system like computer aided design and manufacturing. Rotary furnace fabrication involves several critical parameters like, capacity of furnace, flame length, length of furnace due to the available installation space and determination of type and thickness of materials needed. A complex relationship exists between these fabrication parameters and hence there is a need to develop models which can capture this complex interrelationship and enable fast computation. In this project a computer model is designed and run, taking a 5kg rotary furnace calculated parameters as prototype to facilitate the production of a rotary furnace, using Microsoft visual basic language embedded with the necessary and required design and analysis formulae needed to fabricate different sizes of rotary furnaces.

The tooling and fixture play important roles in manufacturing and production. It affects both product quality and quantity. Better tooling and fixture can also promote cost-effective manufacturing process. This paper introduces a new type of universal clamping mechanism based on computer-aided 3D modeling, engineering structural analysis, and prototype testing. It can be applied to easily and reliably clamp different geometrical shape of work pieces per user requirements. This new clamping mechanism, with less moving components, can assist manufacturing industry for high speed production, easy part handling, precise clamping, and lower tooling cost. Keywords: Computer-aided design, automated production, 3D modeling, cost-effective, high speed manufacturing, engineering analysis, optimization, efficient;

Modeling with freeform features has become the standard in computer-aided design. Features offer a high-level approach to modeling shapes. However, in most commercial modeling packages, only a static set of freeform features is available. A new method for user-driven feature definition is presented, as well as a method to instantiate these user-defined features on a target surface. We propose the concept of a dual environment, in which the definition of a feature is maintained parallel to its instance on a target surface. This dual environment enables dynamic feature modeling, in which the user is able to change the definition of instantiated features on-the-fly.

3D design technology is the basis for the modern computer graphics. AutoCAD 2015 is a powerful version of computer-aided design system. We can solve complex tasks, without which this instrument can’t be solved in general. Using 3D design technology we not only save time working with a drawing. The geometric models are the foundation of the design basics, for working with drawing we can create projections, footnotes, sections and other modern graphics elements. AutoCAD can use and process the data from the model. This progressive design technology includes all parts of the design, starting from machine details, furniture and finishing with architectural forms of complex object models.

A method for autogeneration/draw of valid arrays and contracted graphs by cad is studied in this paper. First, the concepts and relative new criteria of arrays and contracted graphs (CGs) are explained for the representation/generation of the CGs and the identification of the isomorphic/invalid CGs using the arrays. Second, a software is created in Visual Basic for automatically generating the arrays of the CGs with pentagonal links, identifying the isomorphic/invalid arrays, generating the valid arrays, and automatically drawing their CGs. Third, the interface of the software and the main functions of the compiled programs are explained. Finally, some examples are given to illustrate this software and method.

Charge weight is an important consideration when calculating for the blasting crater. The main parameters affecting the blasting crater are the rock type, minimum amount of chemicals consumed, and resistance lines. Although only a few parameters influence the blasting crater, calculating and speadsheeting require a large amount of work and furnish results that are not intuitive. Moreover, the calculation of blasting crater parameters takes time. The current study calculated the parameters using Visual Basic to illustrate a fast spreadsheeting and mapping method using Computer-Aided Design, the design for the charge until the supporting role.

Objective. The objective of the study is to consider the application field of modern device development and design methods using the means of 3D modeling and simulation of physical processes. The validity of the application and criteria for the reliability of the results obtained in the sequential design of the mechanical part of the electric drive and the control system are investigated.Methods. Methods of model representation of 3D objects in computer-aided design systems are considered, as well as methods for solving problems of determining strain under the applied load. Using the example of an elementary joint, the obtained results of the dynamic characteristic of an elastic shaft in a computer-aided design system are compared with those calculated analytically.Results. The article defines the basic principles and relations applicable to describing the shape of 3D models. Methods are shown by which it is possible to obtain information about the mass-centering model characteristics. The relations that form the basis of numerical methods for solving problems of determining elastic deformations of bodies are also given. The error that can occur when using insufficiently small elementary volumes in solving the problem of determining elastic deformation is shown.Conclusion. The use of 3D modeling in the design of complex technical systems is justified and speeds up production processes. However, numerical methods cannot always give an accurate result leading to the need to either increase the complexity of calculations or additionally adjust some designed device parameters.
