JGarcas,
I'm not sure what you mean by the "solution" of Fig. 4-7. What specific information are you looking for?

metrologic,
There is a more recent version, Y14.5.1-2019. The profile section was completely rewritten, and the actual value is now a zone-based single value that can be compared to the tolerance value. The growth parameter g concept is defined, and there are several multi-feature examples...
metrologic,
I'll try to clarify how the different dispositions are treated.
The growth parameter g method can be used to calculate a Method B measured value for any uniform disposition (equally disposed, unequally disposed, unilateral). The A = T + 2g formula applies.
For equally disposed...
metrologic,
I can take this one - I'm part of the Y14.45 subcommittee. The note you referenced is in the published Y14.45-2021 - we were not able to include a definition.
The Method B measured values in Y14.45 are based on concepts and definitions for actual values the Y14.5.1 Mathematical...
Hi All,
It seems that the intent here for "sphericity" is to control the surface with a tolerance zone comprised of two concentric spheres. I would say that Circularity applied to a sphere would not be equivalent to this. I agree with Garland23 that the cross sections in each cutting plane...
Wushee,
Interesting comment, I didn't think of the rounded triangle shape as being intentional but I suppose it could be. There are definitely situations when the shape was supposed to be round but was accidentally produced with the tri-lobe shape.
The figure doesn't have to be a 3-lobed...
greenimi,
I know that the circularity value in this case is 0.8 because I drew the feature that way ;^). Here is another figure showing the two concentric circles for an actual circularity zone:
This analysis contains the assumption that an actual local size is a 2-point diameter. What...
SeasonLee,
Here is another example of what can happen within the cross section. The Straightness tolerance cancels the Rule #1 boundary (18.4) and imposes a larger boundary instead (18.8).
The actual local size can still be as small as 18.0, so the feature can be lobed more than it could with...
SeasonLee,
Your question about the circularity and cylindricity error boils down to the questions of what size control means the absence of Rule #1, and what actual local size really is. These questions have been debated endlessly for many years in the standards committees and on this forum...
Hi All,
I'm not a drafting expert, so I'm not sure if I've got the terminology correct here. Can someone confirm whether or not the following statements are correct:
1. The horizontal line with the double-ended arrow is a dimension line.
2. The vertical lines are extension lines.
If these...
greenimi,
As usual, I agree with pmarc.
If C was referenced MMB,
-The TGC (datum feature simulator) for C would be a tab of virtual condition (VC) size (8.0) at its basic location
-The gage element for the hole pattern would be 4 VC size (7.3) pins located at their true positions
-The holes...
Hi All,
I would say that comparing the tolerance zones from one segment to the tolerance zones from the other segment doesn't add much (if any) value. The part features need to conform to the requirements from both segments, and each requirement can be verified on its own. We don't have to be...
3DDave,
You asserted "for the lower segment only: since datum axis B is nominally perpendicular to datum plane A, then it is redundant and controls nothing". Now you're saying that no one has argued that B is not needed in the composite FCF. Most of us would take the phrase "it is redundant...
Burunduk,
Your statement in bold in the last post sums it up nicely. Once I started thinking of composite FCF's in this way, then things really fell into place. Before that, I had been struggling to visualize how the datum feature simulators would have to behave in order to only constrain...
