Key Capabilities of TolAnalyst
• Fast tolerance stack-up calculation of maximum and minimum “worst-case” and RSS for parts and assemblies
• Intuitive and easy-to-use
• Ability to create and display critical study dimensions directly on the 3D model
• Automatic extraction of dimensions and tolerances necessary for the analysis directly from the 3D models
• Automatic calculation and display of a contributors list of features and tolerances based on percent impact on the critical evaluation dimensions
• Graphic display of maximum and minimum condition in the 3D model
•Quickly evaluate diffrent tolerance schemes
• Seamlessly integrated with SolidWorks DimXpert - automated part dimensioning and tolerancing
• Ability to export all analysis results in Excel

Key Benefits of TolAnalyst
• Significantly reduces prototyping typically required to test for assembly fit and function and even reveals "worst-case" issues you would not normally find with physical prototyping
• Decreases manufacturing costs by verifying tolerance schemes – allows looser tolerances and less expensive manufacturing techniques where tight tolerances are not needed
• Eliminates the need for hand calculations which can be time consuming and error-prone - TolAnalyst contains a tolerance stack-up analysis engine
• Eliminates the need for manual data entry into a program or spreadsheet because TolAnalyst is seamlessly integrated with DimXpert and automatically extracts DimXpert dimensions and tolerances that are necessary for the stack-up calculation
• Provides graphical and text-based feedback as to which features and tolerances most greatly affect the critical dimension being evaluated - easier for the designer to figure out what tolerances and/or features needs to be modified
• Fast tolerance stack-up calculations, combined with the fact that no manual data entry is required, allows designers to quickly iterate stack-up analyses in order to optimize assembly fit and function
• Solves minimum/maximum “worst-case” tolerance stack-up with respect to position of components in the assembly, not by just merely rebuilding parts at their maximum or minimum tolerances
