IENG 248 General Tolerance Development ® Problem: n Develop a tolerance for a pneumatic cylinder guide (slide). The guide is a mating feature consisting of a pin and a hole. The pin will run back and forth within the hole as the cylinder extends/retracts. The hole will be produced with a drill and the shaft will be turned on a lathe. The nominal size is 13/16”, and the allowance is 0. 002”. The tolerances will be specified to the thousandths of an inch. ® Q: Is the hole or the shaft the basis for this application? n 10/30/2020 A: It is a basic hole system. The hole will be produced with a standard size drill bit, which is difficult to vary in fine increments. The shaft diameter can be easily varied on a lathe. Engineering Graphics & 3 -D Modeling D. H. Jensen 11
IENG 248 General Tolerance Development ® Q: What kind of fit is required? n A: Since the nominal allowance is positive, a clearance fit will result. Common sense also tells you that a clearance fit is required to allow the running motion. An interference or transition fit would/could cause binding. ® Q: What is the feature size? n A: The nominal hole size is 13/16”; converted to decimal inches it is 0. 81250. This value is rounded to. 812, using the dimensional rounding rules. ® Q: What is a reasonable tolerance for the hole? n 10/30/2020 A: From Table 10. 2 (Fig 11. 13 old text), for a drilling operation with a nominal feature size between. 600” and. 999” the middle of the range of tolerances is. 004”.

IENG 248 General Tolerance Development ® Q: What material condition should the tolerance be based upon? n A: Since the specified fit is a clearance fit, the worst case condition is when the hole is smallest and the shaft is largest. This is the Maximum Material Condition, as it will constrain the maximum material in either part. ® Q: What is the minimum hole dimension? n A: For a Basic Hole System, the basic size is the minimum acceptable hole size, or 0. 812”. ® Q: What is the maximum hole dimension? n 10/30/2020 A: The hole tolerance is the difference between the largest and smallest hole. The reasonable tolerance from Table 10. 2 (Fig. 11. 13, old text) was 0. 004”. Adding it to the minimum hole gives an upper limit of 0. 816”. Engineering Graphics & 3 -D Modeling D. H. Jensen 14
IENG 248 General Tolerance Development ® Q: How can we show the hole tolerance? n A: Using limit dimensioning, and standard English unit practices (no leading zeros) the following would work: . 816. 812 10/30/2020 Engineering Graphics & 3 -D Modeling D. H. Jensen 15
IENG 248 General Tolerance Development ® Q: What is the maximum dimension for the shaft? n A: The smallest hole size is 0. 812”. For a clearance fit, subtracting the allowance (0. 002”) gives the shaft size at MMC, or 0. 810”. ® Q: What is a reasonable tolerance for the shaft? n A: From Table 10. 2 (Fig. 11. 13), for a turning operation with a nominal feature size between. 600” and. 999” the middle of the range of tolerances is. 0025”. ® Q: What is the lower limit for the shaft dimension? n 10/30/2020 A: Subtract the tolerance from the maximum dimension to get 0. 80750”, then round the dimension to 0. 808”.

IENG 248 General Tolerance Development ® Q: How can we show the shaft tolerance? n A: Using limit dimensioning, and standard English unit practices (no leading zeros) the following would work: . 810. 808 10/30/2020 Engineering Graphics & 3 -D Modeling D. H. Jensen 17
IENG 248 Std. Tolerance Development ® Problem: n Develop a tolerance for an enhanced pneumatic cylinder guide. The hole will still be produced with a drill and the shaft will be turned on a lathe. The nominal size is still 13/16”, but the tolerances will be specified to tenthousandths of an inch. ® Q: How can I specify a tolerance when an allowance is not given? n 10/30/2020 A: Empirical design. Look for standard tables or (previous practices) that help. Start with Table 10. 1 (11. 1) and note that an RC fit is what is needed for a running clearance. Then Appendix 7 (5) shows that a Close Running Fit (RC 4) is most appropriate. Appropriate clearances would run from 0. 8 to 2. 8 thousandths of an inch for a nominal feature size between 0. 71” and 1. 19”. Engineering Graphics & 3 -D Modeling D. H. Jensen 18

IENG 248 10/30/2020 GD &T Symbols Engineering Graphics & 3 -D Modeling D. H. Jensen 27
IENG 248 GD&T Symbol Construction ® Datums n specify their capital letter label in a frame distinguish them from section labels) and connect them to the feature by: (to l a leader, terminated with a triangle, or l an extension line, immediately adjacent to the frame (in this case, there are dashes bracketing the letter) ® Basic Dimensions n 10/30/2020 specify basic dimensions between controlled features (just as with size dimensions), but distinguish them with frames Engineering Graphics & 3 -D Modeling D. H. Jensen 28
IENG 248 GD&T Symbol Construction ® Feature Control n Construct Feature Control Frames by: l specifying the symbol for the geometric characteristic to be controlled (i. e. position) in a box l specifying the tolerance zone shape and the tolerance (i. e. diameter of the tolerance zone) in an adjacent box, modifying for material condition at tolerance specification l specifying the relevant datum(s) in adjacent boxes, modifying for the material condition at measurement ® Append notes as necessary to clarify 10/30/2020 Engineering Graphics & 3 -D Modeling D. H. Jensen 29
IENG 248 Why GD&T? ® GD&T allows us to: n n n 10/30/2020 control more of the important aspects of the feature - the geometry as well as the size avoid tolerance stacking have a cleaner, clearer drawing specify tolerance zones in a manner more similar to the way they will be verified – it identifies the datum surfaces from which a feature is to be dimensioned helps specify how the part is to be inspected and manufactured – implies how the part is to be fixtured Engineering Graphics & 3 -D Modeling D. H. Jensen 30
IENG 248 Example: Flatness (No Datum) ® Flatness is a characteristic of a single surface: n If a surface is sufficiently flat, then all points on the surface will lay in-between two parallel planes separated by the tolerance distance ® Tolerance Zone Depiction: . 002 ® Feature Control Frame & Leader: . 002 10/30/2020 Engineering Graphics & 3 -D Modeling D. H. Jensen 31
IENG 248 Example: Identifying Datums ® Datums are theoretically perfect: The datum is assumed to be exact for the purposes of manufacture and inspection. n For practical purposes, they need to be 10 X more accurately produced than any measurement that will be derived from them. n For manufacturing purposes, these are the first features to produce, since they control the remaining characteristics of the part. n ® Identification: A 1. 02 B 10/30/2020 Engineering Graphics & 3 -D Modeling D. H. Jensen 32
IENG 248 Example: Parallelism (One Datum) ® Parallelism is a characteristic of two surfaces: n If a surface is parallel, then it will lay inbetween two planes parallel to the datum and to each other, offset by the tolerance distance ® Tolerance Zone Depiction: . 003 ® Feature Control Frame: . 003 A 2. 62 A 10/30/2020 Engineering Graphics & 3 -D Modeling D. H. Jensen 33
IENG 248 Example: True Position (Multi-Datum) ® True Position is a relationship between at least three surfaces: n If the centerline of the feature is positioned accurately, then it will lay within a tolerance zone envelope sized by the tolerance value ® True Position is a tolerance of location: Location is specified by BASIC DIMENSIONS n The basic dimensions originate at DATUM surfaces n It may be affected by the size of the produced feature, so design intent should be indicated by the MATERIAL CONDITION modifier n 10/30/2020 Engineering Graphics & 3 -D Modeling D. H. Jensen 34
IENG 248 Two-Dimensional Tolerance View ® To place a hole in the part, we need to locate the center of the hole in the coordinate plane relative to the axis of the hole, and then size the hole (allowing a hole size tolerance) 11. 200 ±. 002 10. 000 15. 500 10/30/2020 Engineering Graphics & 3 -D Modeling D.
