A new method of integrate simulation for the kinematics and dynamics analysis of complex mechanical system is presented in this paper. This platform of the method is based on Visual Studio 2005, MD ADAMS( Automatic Dynamic Analysis of Mechanical System) R3 and Pro/Engineer Wildfire 4.0. The experimental model is built with Pro/E, and then some functions of Pro/Toolkit are used to export file of parasolid format and coordinates of some specified Datum Points. Finally, the coordinates of these Datum Points are written into a CMD file (Commands file of ADAMS). A slider-crank mechanism is used as a numerical example to demonstrate the application of the method. It is shown that this approach is a much easier, faster than usual manual method especially for complex mechanical system which has a lot of Marker Points and constraints.
Based on software Pro/ENGINEER and Visual C++ 2005,sub-module of parametric design of assembly with wide universality was done by using Pro/TOOLKIT, and the design procedure was introduced in details. Assembly relation of sub-components is transformed into binary tree structure to store and search parts, and the assembly relation is displayed by CTreeCtrl control. The corresponding parts can be quickly found in the binary tree. Engineering drawing was automatically generated and displayed by ProductView after loading a part, and in this way dimensions of different parts can be modified according to engineering drawing in asynchronous mode. The sub-module can meet the needs of parametric design of parts in the integrated simulation system.
