MaterialCombination

MaterialCombination describes situations where multiple materials are paired in the design, such as coatings, bonded assemblies, or inserts. The model lists the constituent materials, their roles, and any notes about interfaces or processing requirements. By structuring these combinations you can evaluate compatibility, plan multi-material manufacturing steps, or flag drawings that require special supply chain considerations. It also helps quality teams ensure that treatments like heat-resistant coatings or galvanic isolation layers are captured alongside the base material, and it records confidence metrics so critical combinations can be reviewed before release. The structured history enables sustainability tracking or hazardous material declarations too.
