NativeCAD · implicit vs explicit

Exact where it bolts, lattice where it breathes

A titanium clevis bracket that is lighter than solid and carries every load case, while its bolt bores, pin bore and sealing face stay true geometry: the faces an inspector measures and a mating part touches are the ones in the file.

…lighter than the solid bracket
…worst safety factor across all load cases
…interface faces kept exact in the STEP
…bolt-hole diameter error in the STEP

Three ways to build the same bracket

VersionMassLighterWorst safety factorExact interface faces

Every load case carried

The holes are the holes

…bolt-hole diameter error in the STEP: each bore is the nominal cylinder on the nominal axis
…the same holes measured back off a print mesh of the part, the best a mesh-only file can do
…true position on the bolt pattern, called out on the drawing against the sealing face
