Detailed Description

Describes small distance between tabs issues found during sheet metal design analysis.

When the tabs are too close together, they may interfere with each other and prevent the parts from properly fitting together. Additionally, if there is not enough clearance between the tabs, it may be difficult or impossible to bend or form the metal during fabrication. This can cause manufacturing delays or may even require design changes to be made.

Contains tabs, distance between which fails the following condition:

\[ \large Dist \geq T \times Rt \]

\[ \begin{aligned} & \small Dist - \text{actual distance between tabs} \\ & \small T - \text{actual thickness} \\ & \small Rt - \text{expected minimum distance between tabs to sheet thickness ratio} \end{aligned} \]
