Best Way to do Alignment for Tubed Part

I want to see with everyone's expertise on how I should set up this alignment off the Datums. There is Datum Target A1 and A2. and Datum B. How should I Tackle this? Attached is a layout of the Datums. Thank you for any help.

  • Assuming your A1/A2 line runs along the Y axis:
    Level axis line Yplus/minus (2 DOF)
    Rotate B about line (1 DOF) <-most likely rotate to Zplus as required about Y
    Origin line - X/Z (2 DOF)
    Origin B - Y (1 DOF)

    That will handle the 6 DOF.

    In my opinion, you should start with collecting the cylinders making a temp axis from those manual inputs, then measure B and complete the temporary alignment. Now repeat the process with DCC and beef up the hits used. This should enable you to have a good foundation to move forward with.
