What is it?
1.
2.
Analyzer: An equation based analysis output that precisely

identifies the amount and source of variation within an assembly.
Optimizer: A tool for optimizing tolerances to achieve best quality
based on a minimal cost or optimize quality based on a fixed
budget.

Sensitivity Index
(Coefficients of influence)
3DCS Advanced Analyzer creates an equation of the entire

3DCS model and displays the inputs (contributors/tolerances)
and outputs (measurement results) and their relationships
(Coefficients of Influence) in a graphical interactive matrix .
How does Analyzer work?
1. Tolerance changes can be made in a graphical

interactive matrix providing instantaneous feedback of
updated results.
Analyzer
2. Analysis
Results are viewed in Numerical or Graphical
format.
3. Using a color-coded matrix of the Sensitivity Index, user
can interactively emphasize contributors that are of
great importance to the measurements.
The 3DCS model is converted into an equation based

model where:

Optimizer
Optimizer Overview
What does Optimizer do?

Optimize tolerances to achieve best quality at a minimum
cost.
2.
Allocate largest possible tolerances (larger tolerance = less cost)

while still meeting dimensional objectives.
Optimize quality for a given fixed budget.
Optimizer
Allocate largest possible tolerance at the least amount of cost to
achieve Target Cost. In this case it may be possible that
dimensional objectives are not met.
1.
How does Optimizer work?

User inputs tolerance cost, as well as the total system cost based on
calculation method, and the Optimizer will automatically solve for optimized
tolerances and validate feasibility.
