Setup

You will need to access the Advanced Analyzer and Optimizer toolbar in the 3DCS workbench to complete this tutorial.

Launch  CAA V5SWNXMulti CADCREO

Open the AAO_Lever_Assembly

The Tutorial files and the Example Models install to the following default directory:

C:\Users\Public\Public Documents\DCS\3DCS_All Platforms_8_0_0_1\Tutorials\V5SWMCNXV6CREO_AAO_Tutorial\Lever Assembly

 

Make sure 3DCS Advanced Analyzer & Optimizer toolbar is accessible, if not then activate it by right clicking in the gray        area of the toolbar.

AAO_ActivateToolbar

 

Below is the 3DCS Advanced Analyzer & Optimizer toolbar AAO Setup

A quick summary of the functions is:

 

DVTI_AnalyzerTable GeoFactor Analyzer: Provides the user with an enhanced version of GeoFactor results.

DVTI_DoeTable Simulation Based Sensitivity (SBS): Analysis tool that helps the user understand the effects of contributors on the variation and mean shift of each measure.

DVTI_KCSensitivity Critical Tolerance Identifier (CTI): This is a meta-analysis tool that identifies the critical tolerances in a model.

LSA Locator Sensitivity Analyzer (LSA): This compares move to predict which will cause the least variation.

DVTI_CostOptimization Tolerance Optimization: This is used to achieve the desired quality at a minimum cost.

SequenceOpt_icon Sequence Optimizer (SO) A tool designed to determine the optimal join/clamp sequence from a candidate set of joins/clamps. Users may optimize clamp sequence or joining sequence.

SequenceOpt_icon Datum Optimizer (DO) A tool designed to determine the optimal datums from a candidate set with the goal of minimizing the rigid part variation or compliant part deformation.

DVTI_SaveSOVAMatrix AAO Export: The export function saves the geometric matrix as a *.sov file in a user defined location.

DVTI_LoadSOVAMatrix AAO Import: To successfully import a *.sov file the matching model must also be open.
