Solution
Automated Verification of Assembly Feasibility
DFA | DFX Analyzer
Automate assembly feasibility verification directly on CAD data to ensure design integrity, reduce downstream risks, and accelerate Model-Based workflows.
Assembly Feasibility Verification for Model-Based Workflows
Assembly design decisions directly shape cost, quality, and maintainability across the enterprise. As organizations advance toward Model-Based Definition (MBD) and Model-Based Enterprise (MBE), ensuring that CAD models account for real-world assembly constraints is critical. Elysium’s DFA solution, part of 3D-SUITE, provides automated verification at the source, securing design intent and enabling reliable data reuse throughout the digital thread.
Is Your Assembly Design Silently Driving up Costs?
Struggling with repeated rework and persistent quality issues during assembly?
Facing rising costs not only in assembly but also in downstream processes such as maintenance and service after shipment?
The Root Causes Often Go Unnoticed
Geometry changes introduce hidden defects
— e.g., a shifted hole position leads to misalignment with fasteners
Layout adjustments trigger new interferences
— e.g., repositioning a component results in collisions or insufficient clearance
Designs overlook real-world assembly constraints
— e.g., obstructions block assembly paths, making it hard for workers or robots to assemble or disassemble
Automated Assembly and Disassembly Verification Using Elysium’s Geometry Handling Technology
Most manufacturing costs are determined in the early design stage.
By enabling accurate assembly verification for all designers—regardless of experience—you can minimize costly rework in downstream processes and avoid high maintenance costs after release.

Strengthening the Digital Thread with DFA
Elysium’s DFA verification eliminates hidden risks early, ensuring that assembly-ready CAD models flow seamlessly into manufacturing, service, and quality domains. Combined with other Elysium 3D-SUITE solutions, DFA strengthens enterprise-wide data trust, reduces cost drivers, and accelerates your transition to a Model-Based Enterprise.
