Quick question About ISO.....

If a Blueprint calls for ASME Y14.5 wouldn't this be the standard rules apply. How would I know if and when to apply ISO? I have yet to see anything on a blueprint stating this. The reason I bring this up is for the good old Profile callout. Before I make an argument, I want to cover all my resources. Customer already claims in an email that PC-DMIS is not capable of doing this. I and everyone on here already that's horse_S_H_I_T. But its Friday and I'm ready to P_I_S_S someone off

  • Well, rumor has it that ASME is going to adopt the ISO way of profile reporting (worst result x2), but for NOW ASME is ASME and ISO is ISO, two different calculations.

    Of course you should tan his hide. You have all the information you need here. You should do it in a diplomatic fashion though... Smiley
    PC-DMIS can do both, depending on your version it is either easy or very hard to apply ISO (and vice versa).

  • again I can't thank you and everyones input. Like Vinni mention in an earlier post, basically bite the bullet and just report it. The problem is, this same customer time and time again, continues to have bad call outs, changing the rules. As they go along. Its not the matter of I get paid by the hour. Think of it this way, Say you make an oil painting, and I come along and say, the water shouldn't be blue, make it green because there's algae in there. The leaves on the tree, you painted them green, I'm thinking its autumn, so go ahead and make those leaves brown. All of a sudden that picture isn't looking so good. And you and I both know, not all the time, but sometimes, SOMETIMES, you start making changes to your program. Things start to act a little goofy, and your program (oil painting) isn't looking to good anymore.
  • Make them sign off on it. Generate a document that says they understand that their print specifies ASME and they want it reported ISO and make them sign it. He said, she said, is not good enough if something bad happens and you have to answer for it.
