Abstract

When the electronic computer aided design (ECAD) meets the mechanical computer aided design (MCAD), the process, method and scheme of the design in the new electronic products will have a qualitative leap, and the three-dimensional (3D) design is one of the best ways to realize the improvement of new production quality. 3D design could accurately express the engineer's design ideas, according with engineers' thinking mode and design habits. In the design of new products, engineers could import the three-dimensional model of the electronic products to MCAD software, then mechanical designers are expected to observe the appearance comprehensively and objectively, design its mechanical, structure and shell. Experimental results indicate that the proposed method could predict the actual effect of the new product in advance, avoiding the mismatch between the electronic products and the mechanical casing. Also it will greatly improve the design efficiency and design quality, achieving the synchronous design of the electronic and mechanical products and actualize the integration of design and manufacture.
