When large repeating patterns are not suppressed before running Automatic Feature Recognition (AFR), the process can take hours or fail altogether. In turn, designers can place greater time and emphasis on the features that have the greatest impact on the finished product.
Of note, the patterns are marked with the X and Y pattern dimensions to support the manufacturing team. This process makes the model easier to work with and lighter within the part and assembly modes. In an effort to save processing power and reduce delays, these patterns are suppressed after they are verified. ĭEVELOP’s designers and engineers carry out the design process with patterns to ensure that parts with repeating features look and function as intended. Drawing from their experiences, the team has built a repertoire of best practices within SOLIDWORKS and CAMWorks to increase efficiency, product quality, and consistency while saving time. Overall, SOLIDWORKS and CAMWorks can save hours and even days between the design and manufacturing processes.Īccustomed to manufacturing a wide range of pattern-dependent parts, DEVELOP LLC is well versed in vacuum fixtures, molds, and patterned assemblies. As a result, designers can focus on other details and product enhancements while machinists can avoid costly time delays. To alleviate potential bottlenecks, patterns can be suppressed early on within the design process and before the programming process using CAMWorks Automatic Feature Recognition. Patterns in particular are notorious for wasting time and resources. Without proper management, resource-intensive parts and features can negatively affect your output and profits.
