Dimensional Control Systems, Inc. (DCS) is a software and service provider of dimensional quality solutions, providing variation analysis software, engineering consulting, as well as quality management systems customized to customer needs. 3DCS Variation Analyst is a 3D variation analysis software solution offered as either an independent CAD solution or as a CATIA V5, V6, NX or CREO integrated solution.
The 3DCS FEA Compliant Modeler is an add-on module to 3DCS which utilizes Finite Element Methods to accurately simulate variation of compliant parts and assemblies. 3DCS FEA Compliant Modeler simulates compliant part deformation resulting from manufacturing operations such as clamping, welding, unclamping, and force application.
Benefits: Cost avoidance through improved product design
The downstream cost of a design error increases dramatically the longer it goes undetected in the design/manufacturing cycle. Scrap, rework, engineering changes and tooling delays can all add up to cut deeply into profits. 3DCS FEA Compliant Modeler provides the engineering community with an efficient method of evaluating the influence of material deformation during the digital prototype phases. Problem areas can be identified and corrected early in the product development cycle. Optimizing the dimensional integrity improves the robustness of design and processes by maximizing part tolerances, while controlling the dimensional requirements of the entire compliant assembly.
