Cylinder Datum origin point

AS shown in the attachment where would the X and Y origin be derived from along the cylinder , at the middle (orange circle), where the cylinder starts at the face (blue circle) or at the projection/pierce point of [A] (red circle)?

  • The issue I am having is that I measure the cylinder with sample hits on it's face so my X & Y origin comes from the intersection of the measured axis and the plane creates from the sample hits (blue circle). My supplier measures 2 circles on and creates a midpoint for his origin (orange circle) and in this case it makes the difference between OK and NOK on a True Position to [A|B|C] to other features. So after all that my question is.....from what point along the axis of cylinder would my origin be placed, orange, blue or red circle?
