Mmc

Can’t believe most inspectors and especially engineers don’t know this!

On a hole diameter MMC = Actual measured hole size minus the smallest allowable size which is the MMC condition… max material.

So for TP .5 on a 10.0 +/- .5 hole that measures 10.1
You get .6 Bonus (actual size 10.1 minus the smallest size 9.5 = .6) this .6 extra tolerance is then added to the given .5 TP tolerance for a grand total of 1.1 tolerance.

For a solid pin or outside cylinder it’s outside diameter, same concept. Largest allowable size minus the actual = Bonus Tolerance.

BONUS TOLERANCE =
DIFFERENCE BETWEEN MMC SIZE AND ACTUAL SIZE! ADDED TO GIVEN TP TOLERANCE IN THE FEATURE CONTROL FRAME.​
Parents
  • They do not teach or require any GD&T courses in any engineering curriculum that I've heard of. We have had several engineers hire in immediately after getting their degree and none of them had any GD&T other than the little pocket guides. This should be required course for anyone seeking an engineering degree.
