Design structure is important to the numerical control machine tool appearance design elements, it is the product of "bones", product appearance quality depends largely on the modelling of the structure of the advantages and disadvantages. In scale, the proportion of the linear and the form of product and material technology has made the detailed analysis on the basis of, found the model of CNC machine tool product structure is mainly in the following two direction evolution: leaner, modular.
(1)Evolution route 7: streamline
System structure from a simple structure to the development of complex structures, and then by cutting some relative key components and merge capabilities similar components to reduce the complexity of the system, form a compact structure. In this structure, the original still has some function. Streamline evolution including cutting in space and similar objects the merger of the two aspects. For industrial products, each product is an independent body, want to give a person with whole, avoid messy intensive, it is necessary for industrial designers in similar functional unit must be considered in the design of a merger. Reasonable cutting and merger creates harmonious unification of formal beauty products on the one hand, on the other hand are more apt to user operations, it is important measure of industrial product design.
Streamline route:
The appearance of the complete system→Eliminate redundant components→The appearance of the part after cutting→The appearance of the cutting after all
Scattered parts→cross-functional→Yuan to merge similar function
Route example: due to the development of science and technology, new material, new structure, the emergence of new technology, numerical control machine tool system more integrated, numerical control machine tool cuts off redundant components in appearance, and gradually merge similar functional parts. Such as in traditional common machine tool feeding device was cancelled in the nc machine tools, CNC operation panel, electrical cabinets and so on also gradually incorporated into the machine body in shape. Before meet machine function under embankment, the appearance of the machine tool model become more compact, unity, integral feeling is gradually enhanced.
(2)Evolutionary lines 12: modular
From the viewpoint of system, the system forms, use the method of decomposition and composition module system, and using the module integrated into a system process, is the modular. Product appearance also belong to a kind of module, if the product module as the core part of the foundation, by changing the appearance of the module can be rapidly and economy to achieve product diversification, to meet the personalized needs of different users. The appearance of the product module sometimes do not pay directly the core of the product function, but through the combined with a central part of the work, and through the product modelling, colour elements such as express product aesthetics, culture and other mental functions.
Modular route:Independent design elements matching combination→Local integration→modular
Route instance: in recent years the domestic machine tool design to the idea of modular design, the machine tool appearance according to the different functions of each part is divided into several modules design, at the same time considering their connection and coordination functions, so that both can satisfy the requirement of machine tool structure, and consider from the beginning to the use of the machine tool and form aesthetic feeling, make the shape and structure to achieve the harmonious unification.
