Learn how to use the DFMXpress analysis tool inside of SOLIDWORKS to determine if your part is ready for manufacturing. This tool gives designers valuable insights to identify issues that might cause increased production costs or problems during fabrication.
In this SOLIDWORKS DFMXpress tutorial, I'll show you how to evaluate your part with the Mill/Drill only option using rule parameter settings including depth to diameter ratio, minimum percentage of the hole area inside the part, mill tool depth to diameter ratio, minimum linear tolerance zone, minimum angular tolerance and standard hole size.
Thanks for watching this DFMXpress video and be sure to keep on the lookout for future Alignex video blogs and other expert advice from our team of application engineers. Please take a minute to!
