Bonus tolerance from features.

I have a 5 sided square slot. The top is the open side. The print calls for a mmc position tolerance on the pocket/slot I am referencing however the program I am using has the position programmed as two opposing sets of planes, each set has a midpoint constructed between them and the position is applied to the point.

How do I construct the pocket as it's own complete feature (all 5 sides of the square, with the top open) and allow for the size of that feature to apply itself to the bonus tolerance of the position of the feature?​

  • Hi, The only similar thing I have done is with a slot. I find the midpoint of the slot (and the width of it) and create a generic circle using the midpoint (PNT1) into the X.Y and the diameter assigned from the slot width, then TP with mmc on the generic circle.

    Into the THEO's type PNT1.X, PNT1.Y etc. for position and dim1.D

    Please try..... I'm sorry I no longer have a seat of PC-Dmis to give the code Slight smile
  • In your Theo line the .value should be .TX/.TY/.TZ/.TI/.Tj/.Tk In the actuals line you would just use the .x/,y/etc...
    Or .x.theo/.y.theo/etc for the Theo line.
    This will allow the machine to evaluate what should and what is to give the most accurate reporting information where point data can't be contained.
