Wall Thickness Analysis
After a part is CT scanned, a boundary is created around all internal and external part features. The distance between every surface is calculated and identified as the minimum wall thickness. The results are supplied in a color coded model showing variations from a pre-specified wall thickness.In addition to the 3D color coded model, 2D cross sectional whisker plots are also included with the results to show wall thickness deviations in cross sectional slices.
Benefits
- Results can identify slight variations in a parts wall thickness, which can become costly to the manufacture in high volume part runs
- Results can identify thin walls not meeting the engineered wall thickness sizes for either structural or pressure requirements.
