GD&T for 3.5 MR2

[Thomas Stewart]

Well here I am again with yet another issue. Nice new format BTW... Looks good... Now then...

Our print is toleranced in metric but the cad is in english. Problems don't arise until I tolerance True Positions... Overall bonus tolerance is WAY out. We are currently using 3.5 MR2 but also have 3.7. However, due to RTF formatting issues, haven't used it since initial installation and testing .

Any suggestions or personal success stories are welcomed.... TYIA

Can you get your cad guy to redo it in metric

[Matthew D. Hoedeman]

Well, you could always have the cad department convert it to metric. That would require you to re-program, and I don't know if it would fix the issue you describe. I have noticed that if the hole size if over the upper limit that you get NO bonus tolerance, is that the problem?

[Thomas Stewart]

No Matt it's not a problem (yet) but you and I both know that if it COULD be it WOULD be eventually.... Mr. Miller and Matt, thank you both for the input. It was pretty much what I figured was the best solution but hoped for an easier fix... Reprogramming isn't my favorite thing to do particularly on this part, but that's what I do so I guess I'll bite the bullet... Any word yet on 4.0?
