I am needing some help on how to measure total runout. does anyone know about how to measure this? It is totaly new to me. Thanks

  • Total runout:

    -Chuck onto the datum
    -Rotate the part
    -While rotating, put an indicator on your surface of evaluation. Record the DEVIATION (highest positive & highest negative) in multiple cross sections. Do the math & report it out.

    Math for TOTAL runout:
    -Distance between highest deviation & lowest deviation REGARDLESS of what cross section the deviation comes from.

     In the above example...highest positive deviation recorded is +0.002 and highest negative deviation recorded is .001...the distance between those values is 0.003.

    0.003 is your total runout.

    To do this on a CMM:

    Legacy-->
    -Measure both features as cylinders
    -Level to -A- and make -A- an origin...report total runout of evaluation surface back to -A-

    Xact/Geotol-->
    -Measure both surfaces as cylinders
    -Define surface as Datum -A- using DATDEF command
    -Using feature control frame builder...report total runout of evaluation surface back to -A-

    Hope this helped...Sorry I suck at drawing
