what is geomcheck ?

that create geomcheck errors will make your model more stable and less prone to future problems especially when exporting the model to IGES, STEP or STL. Sometimes the model won't export until the error is corrected. The most common Geomcheck error is where a very small surface is created - usually after rounding or merging. They are also very difficult and time consuming to fix. Regards Rick.

Most geomchecks occur as a result of the limitations of Pro. To get reasonable performance, Pro makes assumptions about whether surfaces really meet each other, as for many geometries a perfect match is impossible. This can have a number of effects: With very low accuracies, (where you use relative accuracy for models with large bounding box dimensions, and then create small features in the model) Pro will accept some pretty poor geometries which it may warn you of but go ahead and create anyway. Upon casual observation these will look fine, but when you zoom close into surface intersections, you'll see they don't really meet up properly. It's a good idea to fix these (usually by forcing a reasonable level of absolute accuracy, depending upon the sort of product you are working on, a good level here will vary, but as aguide, if you're working on, for example, large diesel engines, try 0.02, but if you're working on auto size gasoline engines, try 0.01) as the gaps Pro ignores can cause cross sections to fail, or geometry sharing of one type or another not to work. With very high accuracies, you'll have trouble importing non-native data into Pro. You'll probably need to try a few values. Sometimes, for absolutely no discernible reason (this is rare, but it happens) perfectly reasonable geometry won't work Try varying your model accuracy, and move your sketches round a bit. It's annoying when you cannot create perfectly viable geometry due to the software being fickle, but thems the breaks. All CAD programs suck in their own peculiar ways.
