Rules Using This Reference

Rule Pack Severity Title
DBC-001 G_BASELINE major Keep nominal wall thickness as uniform as practical and taper transitions gradually
DBC-002 G_BASELINE major Avoid sharp internal corners; use generous radii so material and tools can move smoothly
DBC-006 G_BASELINE major Size molded ribs and bosses from the nominal wall, not from intuition
DBC-008 G_BASELINE major Use draft deliberately on molded pull-direction walls, ribs, and bosses
DBC-009 G_BASELINE major Treat shut-offs and thin tool sections as durability problems, not just geometry details
DBC-010 G_BASELINE major Avoid unnecessary undercuts and side actions when simpler geometry can do the job
DBC-012 G_BASELINE minor Deep narrow features and very sharp mold corners should justify the extra tooling process they force
