That's what I would have thought. But they just checked each discrete Basic point and if that measurement met the +/-0.25 (0.500 profile tolerance) they reported back the line profile was good. But it turned out there was a defect in the part along one of the segments that interfered with the...
Here's a snapshot of the line profile call outhttps://files.engineering.com/getfile.aspx?folder=c58158fe-4974-4a6a-bc16-954e8ea3ae67&file=Line_Profile_view.jpg
Thanks for all the feedback and help.
Currently the drawing general notes states "Refer to 3D model for Dimensions". And I have defined the points along the line I want measured. And I provided the basic dimension of where the start point was and the end point. But the vendor only measured...
Hi Alex,
So if I have an highly complex curved part that I want to know the profile of I need to provide basic dimensions? Would I define several points along the curvature? Seems to me that line profile makes the drawing and measurement more complex than simplifies. I can see where adding...
One of our suppliers reported back a line profile that indicated the part was good. However on further measurement I found one edge was wrong. That edge has a bunch of angled faces with multiple radii. So I did not add any basic dimensions as it would have really clutter the drawing. The...
