    Assembly tooling and fixture drawings

    ewh, That's an interesting approach, hadn't thought of that. The hole could be inspected for size prior to inserting the pin. This could be accomplished by the work order/purchase order and through routers and the like. How would you go about specifying the hole on the drawing though? Would...

    Assembly tooling and fixture drawings

    Thanks for the replies. This came about because I was making a drawing for a fixture like the one I described. It isn't very complex at all but I started thinking about all the ways to layout the drawing and I was curious to see how others dealt with this. I was more in the thinking and...

    Assembly tooling and fixture drawings

    Hello, I have a general question about drawing arrangement for assembly tooling and fixture drawings. This may have been covered in previous post, but I wasn't able to find it. I have seen test/assembly fixture drawings done a couple of different ways. Some drawings have all required...

    Pre-Production Drawing Revision Symbols

    Thank you all for your input swertel, That's the idea, except it is impractical for us to change drawing numbers. Our method is that drawing numbers and part numbers are the same. Our part numbers are on parts lists provided to the customer and on contracts. In fact, most of the time we...

    Pre-Production Drawing Revision Symbols

    drawoh, Your example of version number or something like X0, X1, X2... to designate preliminary or prototype (or pre-production as it's called here) is what I am looking for. We do not operate in a PDM system (yet) and fabricators would know to build parts via a purchase order. My main point...

    Pre-Production Drawing Revision Symbols

    Sorry, I should have been more clear. I did mean revision letters instead of symbols. I can't seem to find any other option for revision designation other than letters in ASME Y14.35M. You stated that revisions can be alpha, numeric or alphanumeric, which I agree because I have seen and done...

    Pre-Production Drawing Revision Symbols

    Hello, The company I work for is currently reviewing our drawing release and revisioning processes. I know that it is widely acceptable to have 2-3 different release levels such as preliminary, prototype and production. I also have seen different schemes for differentiating between these...
