Hole Alignment Check App  Assembly Check function to ensure DFM and DFA.

Hole Alignment Check App

Benefits

  • Improves the fixture manufacturability
  • Speeds up the fixture design validation
  • Increases designer productivity
  • Simplifies QC process
  • Eliminates manual oversights
  • Avoids last minute surprises during assembly

Salient Features

  • Configurable to specific client design practices
  • Improved program architecture leading to improved automation
  • Automated operations across the entire tool assembly
  • Automatic identification of mating components and mating faces
  • Identification of not only hole axis mismatches, but also the hole type mismatches
  • Comprehensive HTML report

Summary

Most common problem  encountered during BIW fixture assembly is the mismatching holes between the components assembled. This is a minor problem, but costs heavily in terms of project  schedule. The manual checking of every pair of mating components is a tedious process.  The automation of this check not only improves the tool quality, but also does it in a much shorter time frame.

The ‘Hole Alignment Check’ app addresses this requirement. This app can be configured to meet specific project requirements as well.

This app, based on a user-specified criteria, identifies all mating components along with the mating faces, and the mating holes. This app can work on even non-parametric bodies and identify holes based on pre-defined  criteria. These mating holes will be checked for the possible mismatches in axis and / or hole types.

The app provides a facility to color-code various types of Matching and mismatching hole pairs for easy visual identification.

A dynamic report during the verification process simplifies the validation process by the designers to enable prompt corrective measures.

A comprehensive HTML report with images of all mating components is generated as a checklist, which can be considered as a validation report.
