EVOLVE Manufacturing

Represents Both GD&T and Functionality

Connects GD&T results with actual manufacturing behavior by comparing measured data in both design and manufacturing datums.
Helps engineers understand why a part failed tolerance evaluation and identifies the corrective actions needed to improve the process.
Uses the same point cloud data as GD&T evaluations, ensuring consistent interpretation across design, inspection, and manufacturing.
Provides clear visualization of deviations, grouping of features, and manufacturing-specific alignments for more accurate root-cause analysis

Key Features

Manufacturing-Based Analysis

Evaluates measured data in manufacturing coordinate systems to reveal deviations tied to specific operations or setups

Feature Grouping Tools

Automatically groups features by manufacturing steps, tools, or alignments to pinpoint where issues originate

Manufacturing Alignment Simulation

Simulates real manufacturing alignments—rather than design alignments—to show true production-related variation

Error Component Breakdown

Separates deviations into location, orientation, size, and form, allowing deeper insight into which factors drive tolerance failures

Corrective Action “What-If” Simulation

Runs scenario-based simulations to predict how specific manufacturing adjustments will affect GD&T outcomes

2D/3D Point Cloud Correlation

Uses the same 2D/3D measurement point cloud data as GD&T evaluation, ensuring consistent correlation between feature deviation and functional tolerances
