    Should Number of Digits of Hole Size Match Feature Control Frame Tolerance number of digits?

    Thank you all for the info! I was talking about a drawing in inches. My 6X holes are .8782/.8764 Thru located with 3 place basic dimensions. The positional tolerance attached to the hole size requested: |[POS]|[DIA].0100|A|B|C| |[POS]|[DIA].0010|A| If 3 place basic dims used then this would...

    Should Number of Digits of Hole Size Match Feature Control Frame Tolerance number of digits?

    If I have 6 holes located by basic dimension that are of size .XXXX +/-.XXXX, should the positional tolerance within the feature control frame also be at .XXXX? ASME Y14.5-2009 was not clear.

    Incident Report - Part Number Exists - Must be Unique?

    We have CATIA V5R22 SP3 I have built a large catproduct. Within the top assembly (-01) there are (qty) 2 catproducts (-02 and -03). Each unique and not opposite. Within each of the -02 and -03 there are 3 more catproducts and a couple thousand more detail parts. When I open the -01, I get an...

    Multi-Section Surface Problem

    Jack, I tried the spine but there was no change to the analysis. I did add 5 guide curves. What a change! http://files.engineering.com/download.aspx?folder=9e6ab33f-7ecf-4745-8123-e1e363d55539&file=Surf1-Side2.png I will try the sweep just to try it out but I think that my issue has been...

    Multi-Section Surface Problem

    Thanks for your reply Eric and Jack. I have tried this surface with less sections and the deviations are quite large. (.007 - .025) 1) I tried adding another guide curve and it showed better surface curvature. I am going to add a couple more to see if that helps. 2) I am not sure where to place...

    Multi-Section Surface Problem

    I have a transition surface that fits between a circular shaft surface at the bottom and a constant section surface at the top. There are 16 planer section curves and 2 guide curves (one on each side). Analysis of each section curve and the guide curves show a (generally) gradual curvature to...
