Features: Since its introduction in 1988, Pro/ENGINEER has become one of the most widely used 3D CAD/CAM systems worldwide and in China over the past decade. Today, Pro/E has become the standard software for 3D CAD/CAM systems and is widely applied across industries such as electronics, communications, machinery, mold making, industrial design, automotive, and more. It can be considered a comprehensive 3D product development software that integrates various functions, including part design, assembly design, mold development, NC machining, sheet metal design, casting design, surface modeling, reverse engineering, automatic measurement, mechanical design, dynamic simulation, stress analysis, product database management, and collaborative design and development. With numerous modules, it is also quite challenging to learn.
Given this, we have specially introduced the excellent works of renowned authors from Taiwan, such as Lin Qing'an and Huang Shengjie, who have over a decade of experience in using this software for various physical design and manufacturing projects, as well as extensive insights from their years of teaching and research. This book is intended to provide a learning path for engineers in companies using this software and students majoring in CAD/CAM courses at universities and colleges.
Based on Pro/ENGINEER Wildfire (Wildfire) version, this book is written with both Chinese and English annotations, covering exciting topics such as software installation guides, introduction to the user environment, parting surface design, mold base design, mold opening simulation, simple mold flow analysis, and standard mold base systems. Through detailed functional explanations and practical example exercises, beginners can quickly adapt and become proficient in design.
Drawing on the authors' extensive product development experience and teaching insights, the book offers highly operational and practical content. It is hoped that through the guidance of this book, combined with industry application experience, readers will be able to enhance their learning interest, deepen their understanding of the system, and streamline the product development process.
