DimXpert Tutorial Overview

DimXpert for parts helps you prepare models for conversion to drawings or for use in TolAnalyst™. DimXpert works by inserting dimensions and tolerances, automatically or manually, in manufacturing features such as holes and slots.

Use DimXpert to:

  • Prepare a model for conversion to a manufacturing drawing to ensure that the part will be built correctly.
  • Prepare several parts for the TolAnalyst add-in. TolAnalyst automatically recognizes tolerances and dimensions created in DimXpert.

In this tutorial, you learn how to:

  • Automatically dimension a prismatic part using plus-minus tolerancing.
  • Create a drawing from the dimensioned part.
  • Automatically dimension a turned part using geometric tolerancing.
  • Use manual and automatic dimensioning to prepare a part for TolAnalyst.
