Hello All,
I am looking for some opinions on how to measure this callout.
I was thinking of scanning the thread with the appropriate pitch set in auto cylinder...
or
Maybe creating lines on the angles of the threads then creating a circle tangent to the 2 lines. Repeat this many times then create a circle or cylinder out of all those circles to create the PD. (If Possible)
I haven't tried this but it was just me thinking over the weekend of how I will go about this.
I'm not even sure I can create a circle or cylinder out of a bunch or circles radially.
Also, you'll need to look at the form of the cylinder of the threads to make sure you're not hitting on the burrs and such, it's time consuming. From a manufacturing perspective, if both threads and datum A was machined at the same time then it's going to be concentric about 95% of the time. I would close the book on that and move on to the next
