In order to improve the design efficiency of the shearer drum and achieve rapid optimization, it is proposed to establish a parametric design system for the shearer spiral drum centered on design, optimization system and parametric modeling technology. The overall idea of implementing the system, the function and design analysis of each module are expounded, and the key technologies are discussed. Using Solidworks as the platform, the parametric design of the shearer spiral drum was developed with VB.Net, including the modification of the drum size, the automatic drawing of the cutting diagram, the load calculation of the pick and the automatic generation of the loading blade parts and their unfolding engineering drawings. Finally, it was verified with a 1800x630 roller. Tests prove that the system can quickly optimize the shearer drum, improve the speed and accuracy of drum development, and reduce costs.
