Import/create the Design Space including the Non-Design Spacesin MSC Apex Generative Design as one solid. For this Bookshelf the already prepared Design Space was imported.
Open the Design Space Tool in the Optimization Tools to select the imported Geometry as the Design Space
Non-Design Spaceshave to be selected using the Non-Design Spaces Tools. In this case the top plate is created as a Non-Design Spaces with an offset of 1 mm and the three screw holes are being used with an offset of 3 mm for each.
Machining Allowances should be applied to every functional surface. Thus, at the end two geometries are created: The Norm-Geometry and the Print-GeometryAdjacent Faces should be selected at once, to create one coherent Machining Allowance. Therefore the automatic execution mode can be turned off.
In this case a value of 1 mm was chosen. How much Machining Allowance is necessary, depends on the dimensions of the part and the manufacturing process/machine. Adjacent Faces should be selected at once, to create one coherent Machining Allowance. Therefore the automatic execution mode can be turned off.
For the next steps, the Non-Design Spaces as well as the Machining Allowances are hidden.
