Design-to-cost Configuration for Die Casting

This section covers configuring Design to Cost for the Casting—Die and Casting—Sand process groups. You can configure thresholds that help determine what casting issues, thickness violations, and tolerance-driven Machining operations are referenced in the Design to Cost tab.

The following sections cover lookup tables that specify thresholds related to Casting Issues (Material issues, Draft Issues, and Radius Issues):

• Material Issues: Wall Thickness Thresholds

• Draft Issues: Draft Angle Threshold

• Radius Issues: Edge Radius Thresholds

• Proximity Issues: Hole Proximity Issues

• Hole Issues: Maximum Hole Depth

• Hole Issues: Minimum Hole Diameter

A lookup table related to tolerance and roughness thresholds is covered in Tolerance Grade and Roughness Ranges.
