Chapter 20, Problem 1P

In the traditional coordinate dimensioning system, which of the following is true? (Select one.)

  1. i.                    Only “features of size” need to include a tolerance.
  2. ii.                  Only dimensions that are important need to include a tolerance.
  3. iii.                Only dimensions that need to be tightly controlled need to include a tolerance.
  4. iv.                iv. All dimensions should include a tolerance.
Expert Solution & Answer

To determine

The validation of the statement in the traditional co-ordinate dimensioning system.

Explanation of Solution

The traditional way of coordinate measurement includes the tolerance of all the dimensions. The tolerance is indicated by either plus or minus sign with the basic size in a defined form. However, the traditional way of coordinate measurement system lacks in defining all the geometric attributes of a feature such as orientation and form. But the statement i, ii, and iii specify the tolerance for the particular cases. Thus, the traditional coordinate measurement system includes the tolerance to all the dimensions which it defines.

Given the following sentence descriptions of the geometric tolerance information, correctly sketch the feature control frames for each and include in your lab report. i. The planar surface must be parallel within a thousandth of an inch tolerance zone relative to datum feature A. ii. The axis of a cylinder must be perpendicular within one- hundredth of a millimeter cylindrical tolerance zone at maximum material condition relative to datum feature D. iii. The total runout of the surface must be within a five- hundredths of a millimeter tolerance zone relative to datum feature A. 13 iv. The total surface profile of the surface must be within a two-thousandths of an inch tolerance zone relative to datum feature A. v. The axis of a hole must be positioned within a five- thousandths of a millimeter cylindrical tolerance zone at maximum material condition relative to primary datum feature D, secondary datum feature E, and tertiary datum feature F.
Which method specifies the tolerance by providing dimensions for the upper and lower limit in place of the dimension? a. general tolerance b. angular tolerance c. single-unit dimensioning d. plus-minus dimensioning e. limit dimensioning
Just mark all necessary dimension lines .
