    Composite Position with separate requirement for pairs of features

    I think you want cylindrical zones for the final (2) hole pattern for the mating holes in a bracket relative to datum "A", or "D"? (#8 Clearance holes for mounting to brackets) Frank

    Need help interrupting this drawing regarding all Profiles an how to go about measuring them?

    Is there a note somewhere stating these dimensions are basic??

    Datums

    I think some European? practices (ISO??) prefer holes called out in sections? Frank

    Incomplete or profile general note applicable

    J-P, Thank you, for the clarification. Frank

    Incomplete or profile general note applicable

    J-P, What am I missing here, in my 2018 version, para 5.2 only goes up to (c)?? The same figure is in 2009 (fig 4-13) I can't help but think as they extend the limit on what are "features of size" (1982 did NOT say "OPPOSED") and move toward MBD the centerplane derived from basic dimensions has...

    Incomplete or profile general note applicable

    J-P, Thank you, I was just looking at that and saying to myself something is wrong with that. Chez, Interesting observation on the centerplane derived datum, I think I would agree, meanwhile under the 2009-2018 standard can datum "B" be modified "MMB" to capture the whole part? Frank

    20.0mm H7 Tolerance with GD&T Circularity

    I thought that the size tolerance was "independent" from form under ISO, specifically there has been no statement that the "E" was invoked? The bearing tolerances like those mentioned here, that I see, are generally from catalogs in ISO countries What grade of bearing are you looking at? Frank

    Profile Tolerance in General Note

    The note "ALL FEATURES ARE NOMINAL" is taken from ASME14.41-2012 Digital Product Definition Data Practices ,which I am surprised we have not seem more discussion on here, it is a RADICAL change to the way things have been done. Section 1.4 "REFERENCE TO THIS STANDARD When data sets are based on...

    Width variation of a feature

    I was very intrigued when I first saw that use of parallelism in the ISO. I thought it would be perfect for an issue I was dealing with very similar to the issue CH had showed as the acceptable version,above. When I finally had a chance to study the ISO based books on this I realized it was...

    ASME B18.6.3 machine screw heads

    Thank you racookpe1978, This was an error of communication on our drawings. We are asking for a part made from another part previously made internally. They made a screw of 440A SST and it looks like a standard "#2-56 fillister head machine screw but 1.75 " long. The tolerances turned out to be...

    ASME B18.6.3 machine screw heads

    Our drawing specified a special length (extra long) slotted fillister head screw and the vendor sent a slotted pan head style screw. They are special length so they are not stock. Frank

    ASME B18.6.3 machine screw heads

    Can all of the heads in the ASME B18.6.3 be used interchangeably for the same loading requirements? Providing identical material properties and identical thread specification? Frank

    Composite Tolerance Modifier Change

    I do not want to get caught up in advocating for it, I just want a check with others who may remember a particular passage in the standard I have forgotten. The application is (2) dowel pins, so I agree with the RFS as the final tolerance (lower). I believe the upper was just trying to say it is...

    Composite Tolerance Modifier Change

    Is it legal to use a ,say, MMC modifier in the upper portion of a composite tolerance and a RFS in the lower section of the TOLERANCE section. I know the Datum modifiers can not change per ASME. What say you all, or is there a statement in the standards on it? Thanks, Frank

    Individually

    I think it has to, It is a completely different framework established each time, is it not? Frank
