This rule checks the minimum distance between Hole Trace, and it’s connected systems. Here the connected systems are the edges, profiles, seams, and openings on the penetrated plate system. If the distance between any Hole Trace and its connected system (edge port or profile or seam or opening) is less than 50mm or value prescribed by user, it reports error. The rule is a manual repair type rule, so user need to place the hole traces at the location which maintains at least a minimum distance of 50mm (or the minimum distance as configured) with its connected systems.
Below images illustrate the Hole trace being placed at a valid minimum distance(>=50mm) from its connected systems.
The below image describes the hole traces reported with errors in production check when they do not maintain a minimum distance(50mm) with their connected systems – Edges, Openings, Seams, and Profile Systems. A single hole trace can be too close with multiple connected systems. In this case, the production check UI displays the defective hole trace in multiple rows along with the associated object (Edge, Profile, Seam and Opening). In case of edges, the connected plate system will be shown as associated object and the Comment will describe all the Edge Ports information with which the hole trace is not at minimum distance.
Rule Arguments
There are five rule arguments defined for this rule.
Filter
This argument specifies the types of the objects to be filtered such that rule process further on the filtered objects.
Minimum Distance Between Hole and Edge
This argument specifies the minimum distance between Hole trace and any Edge of the penetrated plate system to be maintained (default value- 50mm).
Minimum Distance Between Hole and Profile
This argument specifies the minimum distance between Hole trace and any Profile system on the penetrated plate system to be maintained (default value- 50mm).
Minimum Distance Between Hole and Seamline
This argument specifies the minimum distance between Hole trace and any Seamline on the penetrated plate system to be maintained (default value- 50mm).
Minimum Distance Between Hole and Opening
This argument specifies the minimum distance between Hole trace and any Opening on the penetrated plate system to be maintained (default value- 50mm).
The RCM Configuration of the arguments for this rule can be seen in the below images.
