EVOLVE Design

Helps engineers apply accurate, standards-compliant GD&T (GPS) directly within their 3D CAD models.
Automatically proofs model tolerances, highlighting issues and offering clear, context-sensitive explanations based on ASME and ISO standards.
Reduces errors and rework by eliminating manual GD&T transcription and providing guided corrections.
Enhances understanding of tolerance impact through powerful tools like Tolerance Stackup and Point Generator.

Key Features

Imports STEP, IGES, DXF, and QIF files, including full PMI support such as datums and GD&T from QIF and STEP 242 models

Supports ASME Y14.5 (1994/2009) and ISO 1101, with an Explanatory System that displays relevant guidance based on the user’s current action

Uses a powerful engine to detect tolerance errors and warnings, presenting clear explanations with direct references to the applicable standards

Provides deeper insight into how chosen tolerances affect functional fit, part variation, and design robustnes

Highlights issues directly on the CAD model, helping engineers understand, correct, and validate their GD&T decision

Exports graphical reports, custom templates, and PDFs, and allows projects to be saved for reuse or integration into other EVOLVE applications
