I have a part that is constantly out of tolerance on radial runout. My datum is a cylinder and my runout feature is a circle. When I change runout from from radial to axial, it’s now within tolerance.
I looked up radial runout and axial runout and the difference is radial is how far off a feature is off the datum axis but still parallel and axial is how much of a tilt the feature has to the datum axis. Which one should I use and why and I out of tolerance with only one and not both?
That makes sense. I though about checking my runout features as cylinders but there isn't exactly a lot of meat on them, my CMM head will hit other surfaces so I chose to stick with circles.
