Just curious on how you would dimension the lower portion of the FCF. The 1 mm to itself, it should simulate a hand apply. I have done it different ways to see the results. I normally set the origin in one feature and dimension the other feature, since they are to themselves. If I line up the two features, one axis is zero, I could accept that. Cannot use a set of features, that is to the datum scheme -ABC-. I just want to know how others would dimension the callout; I am using legacy. Thanks in advance.
IF it had been just the 2 features and IF it didn't have BOUNDARY, I would just do a distance between them.
The people putting boundary on GD&T are (mostly) putting it there because it is relatively new and 'looks cool' on the print, they really have no idea what it means. What it means is that at MMC (smallest hole size) none of any part of the hole can violate the boundary created by putting a tolerance limit at a 'prefect hole at smallest size', it really can restrict the actual tolerance of the hole. When you have a larger-than-smallest' hole, you get 'bonus' tolerance from MMC, but that boundary tag can keep you from using it all. IMO it is a stupid add-on to any hole.
I agree with your analogy, but how would you set it in pcdmis? I am leaning to setting the origin and getting two axis info, think of a hand apply, if the hand apply does not fit in either axis, it's bad, if it pins with movement, it's good. Give me an opinion on what you would use.
What version are you using, you can just sim tol the two holes then add a composite with a modifier... oops sry didn't see you used legacy !!! upgrade!!!
As usual genius engineers put things on the print without fully understanding what they are really doing. I was once told if you have a lower portion of the FCF set up like this the holes are required to be located with respect to each other so my guess is set origin in one hole & dimension the next hole. Then repeat this using that second hole as origin.
think of it this way. Put a SOLID pin at the smallest allowable size at the perfect location of the hole. The actual hole can not touch or 'violate' that solid pin, no matter the size of the hole.
