Hey Kenat,
I've added detail to the illistration showing its mating parts/weldment. I've also attempted to give it a concentricity constraint...see attached.
Make sence??

Belanger,
I'm not sure why you cant open the JPEG...I've re-saved & re-attached it. Hope it works...I look forward to your inputhttp://files.engineering.com/getfile.aspx?folder=95a3b325-1ad5-44d2-8fd3-dc30a5bf752e&file=316302-1_GDT__Aug_24_2010.jpg
Tks Kenat for your input,
I've saved the illistration in a different format (JPEG) and re-attached it for your consideration.
I understand & appreciate what your saying, but am still unsure how to correctly detail the attached...Im leaninging toward concentricity...
I work for a company that is just starting to use GD&T and am have & issue on how to detail 2 coaxial "hinge points".
In the past we have had problems with these 2 points actually being "coaxial" during assembly. Can anyone please advise me as to how best detail the hinge points in the attached...
Tks for your input mcgyvr, but I feel need to eloborate:
The majority of projects I work on.....take upwards of a year or more befor they are ready for production. During that time there are potentially hundreds , or even thousands of parts (and fewer assemblies) that are rendered useless. Any...
I'm a member of an R&D team @ company that designs & manufactures large/complex farming equipment..we use Inventor to do our designs. The company has recently desided to have everything (assemblies,parts, drawings) "checked into" the VAULT @ the end of every day.
I feel the VAULT is a very...
KENAT,
The weldment I was referring to is a bit of an oddity,(2 different size HSS, & matting surfaces cut @ different angles. I have lititure with respect to A2.4 but could not find anything specific to the relitive situation.I was leaning toward a V-groove weld @ 60 degrees, resulting in a...
KENAT,
I'm using ANSI/AWS A2.4-98. I had not previously visited "FAQ731-376" or the other 2 sites you mentioned; today is my first time on ENG-TIPS. I do thank you for your input though.
In the past, our company did not include welding symbols for weldments, and are currently attempting to do so. I'm not sure how to best apply symbols on the angled cut, to the 2 HSS members mating end to end, on the attached drawing...any suggestions as to the best way to prep/weld and add...
