3DCAD information is automatically linked! Digitizing the manufacturing process non-contact.
Tolerance analysis and machine-readable GD&T directly linked to automatic parts inspection.
The essential value of MBD (Model-Based Definition) lies in the fact that the annotations added to the 3D model are utilized by downstream software not just as information for humans, but as **machine-readable** information. The geometric tolerance information (GD&T) contained in the 3D CAD model is directly understood and utilized by various "machines" (software). For example, tolerance analysis tools (e.g., CETOL) can automatically calculate and evaluate the accumulation of tolerances based on GD&T information. Additionally, this information is used in automatic part inspection systems such as CMMs (Coordinate Measuring Machines) for creating and executing inspection plans. This eliminates the need for duplicate data entry and manual interpretation throughout the manufacturing process, achieving thorough digitalization and stabilization of quality. Please refer to the diagrams in the materials for a concrete image of how machine-readable GD&T information can transform the manufacturing process. *For more details, please download the PDF or feel free to contact us.*
