Question

New Check and Update options

There are a bunch of OOTB check and update options available in ModelCHECK. However, they are not enough to address various demands. Here are the ones I collect so far. Are there any ones are required but they are not in the list?

Checks:

  • verify DTL used in 3D model
  • assembly accuracy
  • GEOMETRIC_TOL for drawing
  • warning and error option for ASM_FEATURES
  • check component parameters
  • check system parameter as any user define parameter
  • give an error message when a model is not completely regenerated
  • enable to check "All Levels" of an assembly when ran in "Save Mode“
  • REGEN_DIMS works in interactive mode
  • layer state in combined view
  • lightweight holes
  • there have been dimensional changes but that the part has not been regenerated
  • indicates that ModelCHECK was run on a simplified rep and not the master rep
  • part density(minimum/maximum acceptable range)
  • indicates that material density has been changed from the material card value
  • Huge volume caused by coordinate systems being offset at a tremendous distance

Updates:

  • assign material to part with Batch Mode
  • remove all Parameters at once
  • create a Parameter which contains the OVERALL SIZE value ONLY from the SOLID Geometry
  • add combined states
  • group layers
  • update units
  • create missing features(Datum features)

Thanks,

Russell

Assembly cuts outside of the model - This has caused us a lot of performance issues and would be nice to warn or block these from happening. The automatic inclusion of components sometimes gets to be huge with complex assemblies.

Do we need similar check in Part mode?

Russell,

Is there an option to ignore certain layers; e.g. a layer starting with "_99"?

Also, has there been any discussion on matrix database?

Thanks,

Phil

Phil,

Which check is wildcard required? Start configuration option?

The approach for matrix database is still under discussion. It is not defined yet.

Thanks,

Russell
