Research and Application of Parametric Design for Non-standard Equipment
With the advent of the digital delivery era,many important oil and gas field surface engi-neering projects require digital delivery to complete the three-dimensional model establishment of the entire station.Non-standard equipment'modeling is difficult because it has many types and parts,and its assembly is complex.In order to improve the modeling efficiency of non-standard equipment,C#is used as development language to do secondary development of SolidWorks.First,parametric design of equipment's components is achieved by establishing parameterized components,backend database,front-end interface,and backend program design.Second,according to actual assembly reality,auto-matic assemble of equipment is completed by using SolidWorks automatic assembly statements based on C#,then parametric modeling of non-standard equipment is accomplished.It is verified that the effi-ciency of equipment modeling is improved by 3-5 times by applying the results of non-standard equip-ment parametric software development.In addition,on the basis of the completion of equipment pa-rameterization,the data of equipment parameterization is processed,and the equipment model is con-verted to engineering drawings for targeted secondary development,especially automatic dimension-ing,which will realize the automatic drawing of equipment model into engineering drawings,and the realization of automatic drawing will greatly improve the drawing design efficiency of non-standard equipment.
