Enventive Engineering announces immediate availability of Concept 5.0, a major release of its flagship tolerance analysis software that introduces modeling and analysis of spline geometries and improves mechanical designer productivity.

With its introduction of modeling for splines, also known as NURBS or Non-Uniform Rational B-Splines, Concept 5.0 opens the door for tolerance analysis of a far greater range of mechanical design applications involving complex shapes that are difficult, or even impractical, to model precisely with combinations of lines, arcs, and circles. This includes, for example, mechanism products with involute gears, angled cross sections of conical and cylindrical parts, and cams.

Expands Functional Tolerance Analysis Capabilities for Faster Paybacks

Concept 5.0 uniquely expands the abilities of mechanical designers to go beyond traditional stack-up analysis, which focuses on ensuring assembly fit, to also analyze the impact of component variations on reliably meeting a product’s functional requirements, such as for forces, motions, and deflections.

Concept 5.0 also delivers a wide range of enhancements that improve productivity and usability, including new sketch and tracing tools, additional Degree of Freedom (DOF) indicators, additional ranges for tolerance in motion studies, support for the DXF standard, and more.
