Good morning all, i have a gd&t question i"m not sure about.
Does circularity come into play when both the feature and the datum are running out together, each in the same direction?
The o-ring groove and datum are both elliptical by .005 but measure within .0003 to each other. Well within the .002 called out.
I feel the parts meet the runout requirement but my coworker's opinion is the .005 measured on circularity puts them out.
Thanks in advance.
As
louisd said, the form (ie. roundness) is controlled by Rule 1 of Y14.5 which states that "the limits of size of a feature prescribe the extent within which variations of geometric form, as well as size are allowed." The 0.005" roundness would suggest that somewhere on the diameter, 2 opposing points violate the diametrical tolerance zone. This is independent of the runout tolerance zone.
