Software Solutions > CETOL 6 Sigma > Product Overview

Delivering quality products on time and maximizing profit requires very precise, efficient analytical tools that are effectively integrated with solid modeling systems. Product analyses must become comprehensive as the design matures through the PLM process. For tolerance management, this maturity evolves from conceptual functional interfaces and critical datum references, to accurate, well-defined acceptance criteria for parts, assemblies, tooling, and inspection processes.

CETOL 6 Sigma accommodates a number of tolerance management needs through its unique dimensional analysis system that is engineered to support robust product development processes from design through manufacture. Unlike any other tool in the industry, CETOL 6 Sigma is built on 3D Variation Behavior Modeling™ Technology and is fully-integrated with Pro/ENGINEER, CATIA V5, and SolidWorks – allowing for precise sensitivity, statistical and worst case scenario tolerance analysis.

CETOL 6 Sigma has streamlined the mechanical variation modeling process and enables users to get answers early in the design process and often. Reductions in rework, scrap, and engineering changes are common results of proper CETOL implementation. Our clients are experiencing greater confidence in transitioning products from the design to the pre-production phases and prototype build reductions of 50-75%, resulting in fewer last minute changes, which are often very costly.

CETOL 6 Sigma addresses the need for precision through:

	Better tolerance-optimization tools and processes
	A more precise understanding of how tolerance specifications and manufacturing variations impact product quality
	The desire for a highly integrated solution with current CAD systems
	The elimination of the difficulty in conducting reliable tolerance analysis on projects
