Research and Development of UG-Based CAD/ CAM System for Turbine Blade

A CAD/ CAM system has been developed for turbine blade's manufacturing based on the software of UG in accordance with a type of static blade of China Chang Jiang Energy Corp. (Group) in this paper. According to a few parameters input by users, the system automatically generate three-dimensional geometric model of the blade, and through its CAM module, it automatically generates the CNC track for four-axis CNC machining center. A management system has been developed by using UG / Open API, MFC, and database technology so as to improving the design efficiency in the UG.
