No, you don't need the "half" dimension. But you do need a position FCF to locate those holes to your datum which is width of the material. It sounds like you are not familiar with blanking operation of dies on press. There is a stripper in the die which looks like a tunnel. This tunnel is wider...
Sorry. I don't know what you mean when you said, "the preferred place for a FCF showing symmetry". You don't have any symmetry FCF called out on your print. In fact, Symmetry is obsolete per ASME Y14.5-2018. Are these components in your drawings mounted somewhere? I don't see a third item...
Is your print made in accordance with ISO 1101 or ASME Y14.5? In ASME Y14.5, position FCF is not supposed to be attached to a surface. The tolerances on your print seem very tight for an assembly.
HI, SBaugh:
Thanks! That is exactly what I experienced. I was unable to save the component files (sub-assemblies and components). How did you break the link so you can save the files?
I got a stp file and imported it to Solidworks (2024). I noticed these green arrows (pointing to left) on sub-assembly icons in SW design tree. See image below. Does anyone know what they mean?
