I don't know what this true position on the hole is constraining. Bolt circle diameter or orientation of the hole maybe? Trying to determine if I need to measure the hole as a cylinder. Appreciate the help.
It's essentially the hole pattern to itself. Probably will have to a manual alignment using two of the bolt holes to offset before going to DCC. Create a cylinder on Datum A, then level and set the origin on it. Measure the bolt hole circles and do a 2D best fit rotary alignment. (Terminology may not be correct.) Then report the position of the bolt hole circles.
I can follow those instructions, but I don't quite understand how the position of the hole is being reported with respect to the datum. Since were measuring the hole as a circle I know it cant be the orientation of the hole. Is it basically the concentricity of the bolt pattern diameter to the datum cylinder?
