Test Part for Manufacturability through Automated CAD Part Analysis
The Global Edge Engineering Assistant provides innovative software technology that allows you to automatically test your CAD Sheet Metal Parts to make sure they can be successfully fabricated before they leave engineering and reach the shop floor. This starts with the automated analysis of your CAD parts and storage of complete CAD Part Parameters.
These CAD Part Parameters include the necessary information required to perform a "Manufacturability Test" that compares the CAD Part Parameters with the parameters of your bending machine tools. These CAD Part Parameters include:
- Material / Thickness / Part Weight / Bend Radius
- Blank / Flat (Length & Width)
- Cutouts / Holes (Count & Size)
- Minimum / Maximum Bend Length
- Minimum / Maximum Bend Angle
- Minimum / Maximum Flange Width
- Minimum Pem Hole to Bend Line Gap
- Minimum Embossment to Bend Line Gap
- Minimum Louver to Bend Line Gap
- Maximum Up / Maximum Down Bend
- Fold / Hem / Extrude Counts
- Minimum Taper / Die Cut to Bend Line Gap
