CETOL 6σ

The fully integrated 3D tolerance analysis software tool

CETOL 6σ

Cetol 6σ is a product of Sigmetrix LLC.

The fully integrated 3D tolerance analysis software tool provides the invaluable insight needed to confidently release designs for manufacture and inform the selection of appropriate tolerances to achieve your variation goals efficiently. Fixing assembly problems late in the design chain or avoiding them long before production, all while saving money.

CETOL 6σ enables designers and engineers to easily address multi-dimensional problems, using their native CAD geometry. This unique method allows you to receive immediate analytical feedback, utilising the easy-to-use modelling, analysis and reporting components. The user is guided through the tolerance analysis and optimisation process whilst being informed about missing or erroneous data.

Unlike simple 1D stack-up analysis or Monte Carlo Simulation, CETOL 6σ pursues a statistical approach employing advanced precise constraint technology, displayed in an intuitive graphical user interface. This approach accelerates the ability to identify and illustrate dimensional sensitivities and the tolerances that have the most significant contribution to your variation.

Discovering the critical-to-quality features to control has never been easier.

Analisi dell’influenza delle tolleranze dimensionali e geometriche sulle prestazioni di un contattore elettromeccanico

Nell’ambito di una collaborazione con Lovato Electric, EnginSoft è stata chiamata ad analizzare il problema della propagazione delle tolleranze dimensionali e geometriche applicato ad un contattore elettromeccanico: si sono potuti verificare i criteri attraverso i quali quote e tolleranze assegnate ai componenti si trasmettono alla funzionalità del prodotto finale.

Tolerance analysis on Emax 2 low voltage air circuit-breakers series

Through the analysis of the propagation of the tolerances within the dimensional chain it has been possible to identify the dimensions and tolerances with the major impact on the functional measurements and therefore to act in a targeted way for the resolution of potential non-compliances, avoiding the generalization of their treatment.
