Q Checker
 
Creating a high quality CAD model is not only one of the most time consuming and costly part of the new product development process but it is also most critical. Companies rely on these models to create the products that are the lifeblood of their business. Given the complexity of modern design, as well as the many powerful technologies used in this process and the pressures of getting new products to market, it is not surprising that errors occur regularly in new models.

Q Checker is a management system for product data quality. It allows defining sets of checks and rules (so called check profiles), which assure that a CATIA model meets all the specifications and requirements, which are necessary in the usage of the following processes. Q Checker is designed as an easy to use tool for the daily work of a designer. Q- Checker has currently nearly 300 checks and rules, lots of them with automatically healing functionality. Q-checker is available for all CATIA V5/V4 platforms.
 
  Key Features
 
 
  • Avoid errors in CATIA models at an early stage, instead of post design repairs.
  • Saves time in the process chain as subsequent processes have no rework.
  • Easy exchange of data in supply-chain: as the suppliers can make data fittings before delivery.
  • Online help for the CATIA users that heal or at least describe all possible geometric or structural errors and problems.
 
 
 
Q monitor
 
Q-Monitor is a tool for CAD model quality assurance with a scope of operation not limited to a single project or a single company. Its report results can be used to determine where targeted action for better model quality should be taken. Q-Monitor operates in conjunction with Q-Checker. To name only some of the ways Q-Monitor reports can be used, they make visible the evolution of model quality over a period of time, provide a quality status survey of all models included in a project at a fixed point in time, or allow determination of the general faults that occur most often.
 
Q-PLM
 
Q-PLM is a new extension of the Q-Checker solution. Q-Checker can be integrated by automatic batch mode into important process steps. In addition to routine checks by designers, the data exchanged between OEMs and suppliers is monitored. In connection with release procedures in PDM, a review of the models is also worthwhile. Q-PLM provides – as an extension of the Q-Checker solution – standard components that facilitate a rapid and stable integration into the PLM environment.
     
Key Features
 
  • Integration with product data management and data exchange
  • Minimal implementation effort
  • Standard products, such as Q-PLM SmarTeam or Q-PLM DX
  • Compatible with upcoming releases of CATIA and Q-Checker
  • In addition Q-Monitor provides statistical results of relevant check results
