Abstract The overall design scheme of equipment largely determines the equipment quality. The introduction of Virtual Prototype (VP) into the overall design can optimize design, reduce risk and improve equipment quality. This paper discusses the technical solutions on how to improve equipment quality, analyzes the feasibility of using the virtual prototype in equipment overall design, and tries to establish a relatively complete virtual prototype framework for equipment overall design.
