A feature-based hydraulic valve block model is built using an
object-oriented method to integrate the information for CAD
and CAM. Features are predefined in a feature library and
can be instantiated and managed to form a hydraulic valve
block. The block model is a dynamic database and can be
updated at any stage of CAD/CAM, and has a user-friendly
interface to different applications, such as design, evaluation,
and CAPP.
