Detailed Description

Describes narrow cutout issue found during sheet metal design analysis.

Excessively narrow cutouts often result in slag accumulation or molten material buildup, unstable cutting, burn-through, reduced fit-up accuracy, or even complete failure to cut through. It is recommended to design cutouts with a clearance at least equal to the material thickness. When applying coatings (e.g., powder coat), an additional allowance should be included to compensate for the coating thickness.

Contains cutout that fails the following condition:

\[ \large W \leq T \times Rt \]

\[ \begin{aligned} & \small W - \text{cutout width} \\ & \small T - \text{actual sheet thickness} \\ & \small Rt - \text{expected minimum ratio of cutout width to sheet thickness} \end{aligned} \]
