Other uses could be an airplane wing, complex surfacing designs in automotive engineering, each requiring to fit between two parallel surfaces of the same shape to ensure the profiles are always consistent.

We included a tiny note at the bottom that states all dimensionless features are considered basic. Does that indicate in tolerance can be applied in any direction?

He asked about the surface in regards to a hole. I got a part as in attach, but I do not know how to measure it by my CMM. We'll bring you the most relevant peer-to-peer conversations happening in the trade and tips and tricks to help you get the job done. I would strongly encourage you to take a look at ASME Y14.41-2003 (R2008) Digital Product Definition Practices before you guys start releasing these type of drawings. If your profile is called to a ABC, you do not want to use best-fit, which would free up one or more of the constraining datums.

They affect how smooth parts are. It’s easy to either gage or probe a cylindrical hole. We are looking forward to expanding the resources on the site for all the types of symbols that you see in GD&T. So your surface can still tilt, rotate and translate within the larger zone, wherever the surface does end up it is controlled within a smaller zone of 0.1. by Racinslack20 » Fri Sep 20, 2019 9:18 pm, Post A transparent window exists on this part on which we need to measure surface profile on the edge of this window. Also need to know about datum targets.

Datum A is a flat plane. I don’t believe the designer is in error here, he simply made a choice of convenience for him. I have been asked for profile-surface(at these points), can I calculate the profile or do I have to reset up to get profile point? Calling this out in the feature control frame sets your profile tolerance zone perfectly perpendicular to this datum, whatever it may be. (this would be when reporting against a bi lateral profile). that the profile of a surface tolerance includes all peaks and troughs within the surface finish as well as the geometry of that surface). makes the part heavier). So if the metrologists have difficulties to verify the profile tolerance with a CMM software, they are free to choose other means. This is somewhat of an odd example, and I’ve never personally come across an application in person. (bilateral, unilateral, etc.). Now I feel stipud. Is there anybody in the community that can speak up?

Thanks in advance for any help anyone can give me. Speaking quite generally, the MMB/LMB symbols can always be applied to datums that are features of size. Also, recall that the default for profile controls is to have the tolerance zone equally and bilaterally disposed about the true profile. Additionally, this enables quick, stable measurement with high accuracy.

There is no requirement that any control use a particular method of inspection. By visiting this website, certain cookies have already been set, which you may delete and block. Imagine grains of sand as roughness, the ripples of sand as waviness, and then the undulating dunes as the surface profile. PROFILE_TOLERANCE_OF_SURFACE.JPG.

A profile control without any datums attached to it is a form control. We will be adding an example for co-planarity soon. We have a profile call out of .08 with no relation to a datum or anything. Which is, For ASME only min and max should be reported, no multiplying by 2. Register for the world’s largest manufacturing technology forum for free today to stay in the know.
