Locating- GDT
Locating- GDT
(OP)
On the topic of 'locating' what are the three broad categories?
I think it is irregular, concentric, and plane. I could be wrong.
It is a hw question that i can't seem to find in the book or online.
thanks

RE: Locating- GDT
2. Which GD&T standard is the area of your concern - ASME or ISO? If I am correct in my assumptions about a point of your question, the answer you will give can have significant impact on the response you will get from us.
RE: Locating- GDT
question does not state wheather it is of asme or iso concern.
Locating can be divided into three broad categories. I don't know these three categories. examples are: plane, irreg, radial, OR radial, irregular, and concentric. And a few other choices.
I never learned gdt in school. Wow that is not good.
thanks

And two controls named Profile and Run-out, that don't belong to any group, because they control A LOT by themselves.
Are we getting any closer?
RE: Locating- GDT
The only criterion that comes to my mind right now is that officially location tolerances in ASME GD&T (per Y14.5 standard) consist of: position, concentricity and symmetry.
In ISO GD&T world (ISO 1101:2004) location tolerances are: position, concentricity (coaxiality), symmetry, profile of a line and profile of a surface.
But I think this can be found in every handbook on GD&T fundamentals, so I have a feeling that it does not answer your question.
