Irregular outer diameter profile relief DFM check
Irregular outer diameter profile relief overview
In CNC machining turning design, a turned part with an irregular outer diameter profile relief issue refers to a part with a non-uniform outer diameter that has a relief or indentation in certain areas.
This means that the surface of the part does not have a smooth or uniform contour, and there may be inconsistencies or deviations in the diameter. This can lead to problems with the functionality and performance of the part, as it may not fit properly with other components or may cause friction or wear.
Irregular outer diameter profile relief detection conditions
MTK identifies this issue when the following condition is met:
where:
- — actual face incline angle
- — expected maximum face incline angle
How MTK detects irregular outer diameter profile reliefs
MTK automatically analyzes B-Rep CAD models for irregular outer diameter profile reliefs. 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 irregular outer diameter profile relief DFM check is provided in the MTK documentation, including issue classes, detection interfaces, and integration details.
