The computer aided engineering is aiming at the numerical simulation-the important link in the advanced digital manufacturing. Its second development based on Ansys platform can be carried out often. In common, the Visual Basic and APDL are important development tools and are applied in the product design at the same time. In the paper, the secondary development flow and method based on Ansys is described. The parameter design and analysis process of the bridge girder erecting equipment is carried on with Ansys software and its secondary development tools-APDL and Visual Basics, including the interact between the mode of Ansys batch solving and Visual Basic. The method speeds up design and enhances the product the quality and the performance.
