Attractive look and ergonomic product design aesthetic perception <br> <br> that give people the perception of the product or grip, sit or lie down feeling, is the most well-designed and intuitive aspects, in particular, It is a consumer product. From handheld electronics to furniture and appliances, people are more and more critical about the appearance and look of their products. Until recently, the smooth, curve-filled shape was highly dependent on specialized surface tools. Now, all of this can be done with the advanced molding capabilities of the 3D CAD system. With these features, engineers can create organic shapes and complex surfaces – both of which are especially important for the look and feel of the product.

Advanced surface features are especially useful for products that require ergonomics or require direct interaction with humans. For example, LASCO Bathware, Inc. (Anaheim, Calif.) uses SolidWorks CAD tools to make the bathtub geometry more conformable to the human body. LASCO designers use the SolidWorks Surface tool to create the curves and shapes of the bathing device and make it through one of three different molding-related processes: Glass Fiber Reinforcement Process (FRP) - Spraying various resin glues on the surface of the disengaged mold Clothing and interlayer; acrylic resin process - using a vacuum mold to draw a thin layer of acrylic resin into the mold; glass fiber impregnating resin process - placing a thin layer of glass fiber in a mold, forming under heat and pressure, somewhat similar Waffle baking mold.

Easy maintenance and repair <br> <br> last characteristic is the excellent design of the maintenance and repair issues into consideration in the concept development phase. For products that require assembly, disassembly, maintenance, or on-site maintenance, if the designer considers such factors after the event, the product will undoubtedly fail. The maintainable assembly must have enough space to not only allow people to replace the parts, but also to disassemble all parts when servicing the parts. By using dynamic motion and visualization capabilities, designers can not only identify collision areas, but also ensure that there is enough room for disassembly and replacement of specific components. Wiring tools such as SolidWorks Routing help designers ensure that cable lengths are sufficient.

Bucyrus International, Inc. (South Milwaukee, Wis.) uses SolidWorks CAD software to improve the assembly and maintenance performance of shovel, drill bits and draglines, which the company developed for the open pit mining industry. With 3D CAD tools, the company can ship sub-assemblies of such large equipment in phases, reducing on-site assembly time and setting new standards for product delivery and assembly of surface mining equipment.

Despite the increasingly demanding requirements of designers in the increasingly competitive global marketplace, today's engineers are constantly striving to create great designs and ultimately turn them into successful products. With all the 3D CAD tools available today, designers can develop new design concepts that are superior in appearance, superior in appearance, superior in performance, stable in configuration, simple in maintenance, and profitable in production.

Piston and Rod Seals

Piston Seals and Rod Seals are important seals used in mechanical equipment. Their main function is to prevent liquid and gas leaks and ensure the normal operation of mechanical equipment. Piston seals and rod seals are usually used in hydraulic and Pressure system, such as hydraulic cylinders and Pneumatic cylinder. The quality and performance of these seals directly affect the efficiency and lifespan of mechanical equipment.
