Cam mechanism is the most difficult part in the design and manufacture of stamping dies of automobile panels. The same series of cam products need to meet the needs of different working angles. Each specification needs to design and prepare a three-dimensional model, which brings great challenges to the design, editing, and management of the models. Therefore, a new design system of full parametric association modeling based on geometric features for standard cam was proposed, which is seamlessly integrated in NX software platform. The models of different work angles of the same series of cam are integrated into a fully parametric model. The specification and assembly location of standard parts, activation and suppression of detail features will automatically change with work angle based on parametric feature and association constraint technique. By modifying the work angle, the system can automatically instantiate different specification models of cam. Furthermore, the optimized design of cam structural is easier to achieve by motion simulation and finite element analysis based on the parametric model and geometric features. The system can also output the BOM table, when the model is instantiated. The cam of KMACG 600 demonstrates that the newly developed system shows an excellent performance on the model simplification, data management, and optimization design of cam, which can generate high quality design and reduce cost and designing time significantly.
