  • For 90% of my parts (given the set of circumstances you described), my company would want me to ship it.

    In this situation I would:
    -Print the PC DMIS Report & hand write on it that I accept at high limit after verifying with a mic/plate layout
    -On my company's inspection paperwork, I would enter the high limit value (over-riding what the CMM got)
    -PC DMIS report stays with "Run Folder" for traceability


    That said, my company does make Critical Safety Components for aircraft engines. Some parts have diameter & runout tolerances at/around 0.0001" and we have to reject these products for being even slightly OOT (customer will check them just like we do). Fun times Slight smileSlight smile


    Sounds like your company has a decent process for that situation.

    That is a crazy runout tolerance. That can't be fun when the customer is checking that too.
