    Parallelism GD & T and angle connection

    Drawoh, When you are answering assume only 0.2 and not 0.2/50

    Parallelism GD & T and angle connection

    ctopher Datum A is a plane. CheckeRon Also I have attached an example from reliable source which explains this symbology. Drawoh, "Your two diagrams show a different distance between datum A and your edge." I did not get what you intended to say above. Let me say that I define the Ø50 surface...

    Parallelism GD & T and angle connection

    Ringman, I have myself seen this kind of notation for first time may be from ISO. But let us forget that part consider only 0.2 instead of 0.5/50 than what is your thought

    Parallelism GD & T and angle connection

    Ringman, It is true but in both of my cases set of the parallel planes will lie at distance of 0.2. only difference being in first case it is equally offset by 0.1 in both direction In other case 0.2 in one direction.

    Parallelism GD & T and angle connection

    Hi, Could you help me interpret the parallelism GD & T. figure is attached. I have shown my interpretation , I am not sure which one is correct.

    Basic dimension without position tolerance

    Drawoh, Idea was to control the angularity and the height of centre point which should be within plusminus .05sin(theta). In case axym and michal77 is also thinking in similar fashion than it is achieved. Keeping my requirement in mind could you please let me know the way you would have...

    runout relative to same feature's axis

    kmansoor, It might be legal to specify but as you said parts are being produced from quite some time how is quality inspection been done with this kind of condition.

    Basic dimension without position tolerance

    Weavedreamer, I have attched an example from the standard. Do you feel it is incomplete ? Drawoh, I have my doubts if position tolerance is for FOS. Please refer the attached example http://files.engineering.com/getfile.aspx?folder=4f1061ba-97a3-4466-a03a-e0b3b0394661&file=example_standard.JPG

    Basic dimension without position tolerance

    There is a similar example in ISO 1101 p37, only difference being datums precedence is otherway but tolerance zone remains same. What I do not understand is, if basic dimension 35 is not basic would it make any difference. The tolerance zone would still be same ?

    Basic dimension without position tolerance

    Yes it is but given on Surface which means simulated plane will be parallel to surface at a distance of ± 0.05, but this toleranc is applicable on angular basic dimension and not on 54.52.

    Basic dimension without position tolerance

    Weavedreamer, Please see the attached example, that would explain more precisely. Dimension which is questionable is 54.52http://files.engineering.com/getfile.aspx?folder=c65d60b5-52f7-4453-bb49-d7e02697c711&file=example.JPG

    Is Use of a Center plane for Tertiary Datum Legit?

    Ringman, I am not able to visualise Datum B since you have defined it as bottom edge, what this means are you trying to define an edge as Datum ?

    Basic dimension without position tolerance

    Hi, Is it correct to have only basic dimension without a position tolerance for a part ?
