Runout controls how smoothly the pully runs. Profile controls position accuracy of the pulley. Generally, the runouts are significantly smaller than profiles for this pulley or motor.

The profile of surface 2 to A | B | C does not make any sense. You can't use it unless the groove is dimensioned to coordinate system of datum feature A, B, and C.
Imagine you machine this groove on a 4-spindle machine with a ball end mill, the tip of your ball end mill may not even touch some...
The theory of "feature of size" in ASME Y14.5 is based on stability or robustness of features. Depth of a blinded hole is stable and robust in math and should be consider feature size even though there are no physical opposing elements. It is debatable, but depth of a groove should be considered...
Hi, AMontembeault:
You can control it with a local depth dimension as depth of blind holes is considered feature of size. What is function of this groove? What does the mating part look like? Is it a cavity to maintain lubricant?
I assume that you use a CNC milling machine with a ball end...
Like any other 3D software, Solidworks is object-oriented. Name of each file is like "social security" number of a person. It needs to be fixed and preferably be set to "Stone".
Hi, koubaleite:
Are you trying to develop a generic macro for all assemblies? If that is the case, then you need to...
Are you trying to rename your components automatically using a macro? If not, you will need to open the top level assembly and "save" each of your components to a different name.
