Additional productivity enhancements in Creo EZ tolerance analysis for stackup definition

Release: Creo Parametric 9.0.0.0

What is the benefit of this enhancement?
You can now use additional productivity options in EZ Tolerance Analysis to improve tolerance stackup definition.

Support Selection of Datum Planes and Axes During Stackup Tolerance Definition
User Interface Location: While defining a stackup, new filtering options are available for selecting the start, end, or mating features.

You can select datum planes and axes as the start, end, or mating features during the stackup definition process.
In cases where solid model surfaces are not suitable for easy selection, using relevant datum planes or axes provides a better alternative.
This enhancement offers an easier way to define one-dimensional stackups for tolerance analysis.

Angular Misaligned Surfaces or Parts for Stackup Definition Analysis
Surfaces or parts with small angular misalignments can now be used for stackup definition and are no longer filtered out.
Previously, only perfectly aligned surfaces-parallel or perpendicular to the stackup direction-could be selected as start, end, or mating features.
This enhancement saves time during stackup definition and removes the need to redesign the model.

Circular Edge Use For Tolerance Stackup Definition
You can now use a circular edge for tolerance stackup definition, either in the direction normal to the plane containing the edge or along the axis through the center of the arc.
When no suitable planar face is available, selecting a circular edge allows you to define a plane.
This enhancement provides a simpler way to define one-dimensional tolerance stackup analysis.
