The configuration file contains all information necessary for the algorithm to run through the optimisation. It is subdivided into seven different areas: Geometry, Loads and Constraints, Cases (Events), Optimisation, FEMConfig, ImportConfig and Advanced User Settings.

More information regarding the difference between a space and mask here.

Machining Allowance

The Machining Allowances section collects all information regarding the Machining Allowances and the Design Space including the Machining Allowances to guarantee a correct intersection.

MachiningOffset machOffset_MachiningAllowance_Machining_Allowance_1

Each Machining Allowance is given a unique name.

.mask = Maskname

Defines to which mask the offset refers.

.offset = 0.001000

Defines the thickness of the Machining Allowance in the chosen unit.

Mask DesignSpace_machiningOffset

offsetSpace = DesignSpace_machiningOffset

Defines the geometry of the intersection model including Machining Allowances.

Loads and Constraints

The Loads and Constraints section collects all information regarding the loads and fixations applied to the different masks.
