In this exercise, you will learn to create a stackup, to generate the reports, and save reports. Click here to download the bearing shaft assembly. Unzip the folder in the directory of your choice.
Workflow
1. Set the default tolerance and default analysis.
2. Create the stackup automatically.
3. Add a feature.
4. Generate and save the report.
Set default tolerance and default analysis
1. Click EZ Tolerance > Options . The Options dialog box opens.
2. Under inches, set the Linear Dimension tolerance to 0.01.
3. Click Worst Case in the Analysis Type field.
4. Click OK.
Create the stackup
For this stackup, you will analyze the clearance between the CLIP2 part and the BEARING part.
Create the stackup: Define the stackup dimension
1. Click EZ Tolerance > New Stackup . The New Stackup dialog box opens.
2. Select the planar surface of the BEARING closest to CLIP2.
3. Select the planar surface of CLIP2 closest to BEARING.
4. Select the ASM_RIGHT datum plane.
5. Click in the graphics window to locate the stackup dimension annotation. The Assembly Area opens in the New Stackup dialog box
Create the stackup: Define the stackup using assembly constraints
In the New Stackup dialog box, under Assembly, Assembly Constraints is selected. Click OK. The stackup is created.
Add features
After the stackup is created, you can add intermediate features to define the dimension scheme of each part.
1. Click EZ Tolerance > Add Feature.
2. Select the BEARING step surface.
3. Select the step surface on the opposite side of the BEARING part.
4. Click OK.
Generate and save the report
1. Close the Stackup Details table.
2. Click in the in-graphics toolbar and select RIGHT to reorient the model.
3. Click Stackup Table. The Stackup Details table opens.
4. Click to save the view and size to be used in the report.
5. Click Generate Report. The Save report dialog box opens.
6. Type Report1 in the File name box and click Save.
