Precision Dimensioning Engineering II

Dimensioning Rectangular Prisms

Dimensioning Cylinders • The diameter of cylinders should be dimensioned in • Cylinders without a hole passing through them only

Dimensioning Cones

Dimensioning Spheres

Rectangular Coordinate Dimensioning • Used when computer-controlled production machines are used to manufacture parts. • The designer should consult with personnel in manufacturing to ensure that the origin is located in an appropriate position. • Two types of rectangular coordinate dimensioning: – Coordinate Dimensioning with Dimension Lines – Coordinate Dimensioning Without Dimension Lines

Coordinate Dimensioning with Dimension Lines

Coordinate Dimensioning without Dimension Lines

Tabular Dimensioning • Tabular dimensioning is used when a series of parts consists of the same features or geometry but vary in dimension. • Letters are used in place of dimension values, and the values are then placed in a table. • Most standard parts are dimensioned this way in catalogs, the machinery handbook, and in the back of most textbooks.

Tabular Dimensioning

Dual Dimensioning – Position Method • Millimeter value is placed above (or below) the inch value or separated by a dash.

Dual Dimensioning – Bracket Method • Millimeter value is enclosed in square brackets. A note should be placed on the drawing such as: DIMENSIONS IN [ ] ARE MILLIMETERS.

Tolerance Dimensioning • Why do we need tolerance dimensioning? – Interchangeable parts manufacturing – Parts are manufactured at widely separate localities – Effective size control – Modern industry relies on it for subcontracting and replacement parts • Accuracy is Expensive, however

Reading Dimensions. 1 One tenth of an inch . 01 One hundredth of an inch . 001 One thousandth of an inch . 0001 One ten-thousandth of an inch . 00001 One millionth of an inch

Specification of Tolerances Limit Dimension Unilateral Bilateral-Equal Bilateral-Unequal

Tolerance • Tolerance is the total amount a specific dimension is permitted to vary (difference between the maximum and minimum limits). • The dimension below has a tolerance of. 0003.

Maximum Material Condition • When specifying tolerance dimensions, the maximum material condition (MMC) means the product or part contains the maximum amount of material specified by the tolerance. • The heaviest part.

Maximum Material Condition • For the part shown here the MMC is 1. 4996 since that size would yield the most material.

Allowance • Allowance is the minimum clearance or maximum interference intended between the maximum material condition (MMC) of mating parts. • The allowance for the system below is: 25. 000 - 24. 890 = 0. 110

More Terminology • Nominal Size - General identification in fractions (ex. 1 -1/2 for 1. 500). • Basic Size - General identification in decimal (ex. 1. 500). • Actual Size - Measured size. • Limits - Maximum and minimum sizes indicated by the tolerance dimensions.

Clearance Fit • Space is always left between parts. • What is the allowance in this case? • 1. 5000 – 1. 4988 =. 0012

Interference Fit • Always an interference of material. • What is the allowance in this case? • 1. 5000 – 1. 5013 = -. 0013 or just. 0013

Transition Fit • Fit might result in clearance or interference.

Line Fit • Clearance or surface contact may result at assembly.

Basic Hole System (Hole Basis) • The minimum size hole is taken as the basic size. • Used when standard tools are used to produce holes (reamers & broaches).

Basic Shaft System (Shaft Basis) • The maximum shaft size is taken as the basic size. • When several parts having different fits, but one nominal size are required on a single shaft.
