9 Position Tolerancing—Expanded Principles, Symmetry, and Concentricity
Explain functional gaging methods for checking hole position tolerances specified at MMC. • Specify and explain composite position tolerance specifications. • Explain the effect of using identical datum feature references in multiple position tolerance specifications.
Specify separate pattern requirements for groups of features not acting as a single pattern. • Specify position tolerances for in-line holes. • Specify tolerances to control symmetry. • Control coaxial features with position or concentricity tolerances, depending on the given application.
Symmetry • Position tolerance • Symmetry tolerance • Symbol removed from standard in 1982 • Symbol reinstated in 1994
Concentricity • Requires derived median line located relative to datum axis • Always has diameter symbol • Always applied RFS • Must have datum feature reference • Datum reference is always RMB • Rarely used
Concentricity Zero Error • Even though a feature has surface and size variation, it may have no concentricity variation
Composite Position Tolerance • One position symbol • Two or more segments • Same datums, same order, same modifiers
PLTZF • Pattern-locating tolerance zone framework • Pronounced plotz • First segment • Located relative to datum reference frame
FRTZF • Feature-relating tolerance zone framework • Pronounced fritz • Lower segment(s) • Not located relative to datum reference frame • Constrained in rotation relative to referenced datums • Must, at a minimum, overlap PLTZF
No Repeated Datum References • Free to float relative to datum reference frame • Features must be able to meet tolerance requirements in first and second segments
Repeated Primary Datum Reference • Rotational degrees of freedom constrained relative to primary datum • Features must be able to meet tolerance requirements in first and second segments
Repeated Primary and Secondary Datum Reference • Rotational degrees of freedom constrained relative to primary and secondary datum • Features must be able to meet tolerance requirements in first and second segments
Gaging a Composite Position Tolerance • Similar to single segment position tolerance • Two gages typically required to check composite tolerances
