Help with a profile callout

Hello all!

Fast question for the following callout:



The callout is for controlling these 2 "L" shaped pockets(?!). This is actually half the part as there is a mirror half on the right side (thus the 2x and 4x designations on the basic dimensions). I am a bit confused as the 2.6 basic dimension is restricting translation of the vertical planes while the callout has no datums in the callout. Is this correct?

How would you control this in a no CAD program? Thanks in advance for your advices Slight smile

  • thanks for the answer. It is kinda confusing tbh and at the end of the day I would be interested to know if this indeed correct. For the vertical axis is using the 7.8 basic dimensions between the profiles that are controlled. I am wondering if it would be more correct to do the same with the horizontal axis as there is a mirror side.

    On the pcdmis programming side, would a constructed feature set / scan of 2 autoplanes would be enough to dimension with the profile callout you think? What would the best non CAD approach to controlling this?
