STEP examples for this check

Geometry preview: Plain plate: 2 mm

Sheet metal · CC0-1.0

Plain plate: 2 mm

Model example

Inspect the thin edge of this 40 × 60 × 2 mm plate. Mild-steel screening uses 1.2 mm; this is a heuristic, not a DIN minimum.

Dimensions (approx.): 40 × 60 × 2 mm

Expected check result

PRU-068 should report no thin-plate warning.

No finding expected

PRU-068

Compare: Plain plate: 0.6 mm
Geometry preview: Plain plate: 0.6 mm

Sheet metal · CC0-1.0

Plain plate: 0.6 mm

Model example

Inspect the thin edge of this 40 × 60 × 0.6 mm plate. Mild-steel screening uses 1.2 mm; this is a heuristic, not a DIN minimum.

Dimensions (approx.): 40 × 60 × 0.6 mm

Expected check result

PRU-068 should warn and offer plain-plate thickening.
