Inconsistent bend radii DFM check
Inconsistent bend radii overview
This issue occurs when the radius of a bend varies from one section to another, resulting in uneven distribution of stress and strain in the part.
Avoiding variety in bend radii help to minimize setup changes during the manufacturing process. When the bend radius is consistent, the machine settings can be standardized, which means that less time will be spent making adjustments between parts.
How MTK detects inconsistent bend radii
MTK automatically analyzes B-Rep CAD models for inconsistent bend radii. The SDK checks the relevant geometry against DFM criteria to identify potential issues that can increase manufacturing complexity or cost, or lead to quality or assembly problems.
Documentation and API reference
Detailed API reference for the inconsistent bend radii DFM check is provided in the MTK documentation, including issue classes, detection interfaces, and integration details.
