Company Overview
Dimensional Control Systems (DCS) is a world class provider of Dimensional Engineering Consulting Services and Software Solutions. DCS is a privately held company established in December of 1994 by Robert A Kaphengst, President and CEO, and John H. Mathieson, Executive Vice-President and COO. Dimensional Control Systems is a premier Engineering Firm, specializing in the field of Dimensional Engineering. DCS currently has engineers working within a variety of industries worldwide, supporting a host of OEM and tier suppliers with Software Solutions and Engineering Placement, as well as Engineering Services. 3DCS and GDM solutions are used in many industries, such as automotive, aerospace, energy, household goods, electronics, and industrial machinery, to create robust designs, solve quality and assembly issues before production, and "close the loop" by utilizing actual production data for root cause analysis.
Software Partnership Value
3DCS Variation Analyst is a scalable, fast, easy to use product that supports Stylist, Perceived Quality, Design, Analysis and Manufacturing Engineers with a variety of capabilities to manage design quality from beginning to end of a product lifecycle. From visualizing the impact of design and manufacturing variation of a product’s perceived quality (fit and finish), to comprehensive in-depth tolerance analysis for identification of critical to quality characteristics, to root-cause analysis of variation problems in production, 3DCS covers the scope of dimensional quality while being seamlessly integrated into the V6 environment.
Tolerance Analysis is used to ‘drive’ the design (both geometry and tolerances) to meet defined quality and cost requirements while meeting component manufacturers’ capabilities. 3DCS CAA V5 Based Tolerance Analysis software offers engineering the opportunity to optimize component tolerances and maximize quality while minimizing costs. The optimal time to complete the variation analysis is as early in the product's lifecycle as possible to make the most impact to the overall design quality. Whether the quality characteristics are for fit, finish / aesthetic properties, or functional requirements, 3DCS can definitely be used to improve the assembly quality.
