Creating A Distance Check

This document explains how to use the Distance and Band Analysis tool to measure distances between products in Dassault Systemes' DMU Space Analysis software. You can measure minimum distance or distance along the x, y, or z axis. The steps are to select the analysis type and location, choose the products, and click Apply to calculate and view the distance results.

Creating a Distance Check

Licensing

Distance and Band Analysis may not be available on every configuration; you must have a DMU
Space Analysis license.
This procedure explains how to measure distances between products. You can measure the
minimum distance or the distance along the x, y, or z axis.
This command is described in more detail in the DMU Space Analysis User's Manual. The manual
focuses on using the command in workbenches that modify .CATProducts; in the 3D Simulation for
Manufacturing workbench, the command is used in the context of .CATProcess files.
The drawing below shows the differences among distances along two of the axes or the minimum
distance.

1. Click Distance and Band Analysis .


The Edit Distance and Band Analysis dialog box appears.

The default distance analysis is measuring the minimum distance inside one selection.

2. From the Type list, select the kind of analysis you want. The choices are:
Minimum
Along X
Along Y
Along Z
Band analysis
3. From the list below Type , select where you want the measurement to occur. The options are:
Inside one selection (default type):
Within any one selection, tests each product of the selection against all other
products in the same selection.

Between two selections:


Tests each product in the first selection against all products in the second selection.
Selection against all:
Tests each product in the defined selection against all other products in the
document.
4. If you chose Inside one selection, select one product; otherwise, select two products.
5. To calculate the distance, click Apply.
A preview window appears visualizing selected products and the minimum distance
(represented by a line, two crosses and a value).

The dialog box expands to show the results.

Minimum distance and other information identifying all distance components is given in the
expanded dialog box. X,Y,Z coordinates of start and end points on products selected for the
distance calculation as well as the products themselves are identified.
6. Use Defining an Analysis Configuration when you are ready to perform this analysis during a
simulation or the Jog command (depending on your product).
