At the heart of SoftFit™ Solver is the ability to apply operations simultaneously on selected features and/or functional groups of features on a single part or across multiple parts. The WSIWYG approach of the browser interface drives the “what-if” capability. Displaying results in real time including SPC calculations means that you are able to virtually evaluate many possible solution scenarios in minutes, eliminating time consuming and costly manufacturing iterations.
Besides its multiple application-specific algorithms, SoftFit™ Solver provides robust controls that enable you to:
- Constrain degrees of freedom for rotation and translation
- Apply Isotropic or Differential scaling
- Apply material offset
- Populate functional groups directly with feature and tolerance name and type already defined in CAD, and add additional user-defined criteria.
- Apply operations to parts individually or by average for multiple parts
- Apply tolerance and feature weighting
- Automatically script repetitive tasks to run either within the SOLIDWORKS environment or remotely as an APP.
Instead of staring at a sea of numbers in CMM reports, visualize measurements on the CAD and find the best fix for your progressive die in seconds. See how, in this CheckMate SoftFit Solver video from Origin at the top left of this screen.
