  • Abstract
    A Visualized CAD design program system of the planet carrier of planetary gear reducer has been developed in the Microsoft Visual Basic 6.0 integrated development environment. The program system of the Planet Carrier CAD is designed according to the software engineering method. An ACCESS database for the planet carrier of planetary gear reducer has been finished, which is very easy to be managed and revised. The program system also can be used to carry on the finite element analysis and the optimized design for the Planet Carrier by dint of second developing ANSYS environment.
