True Position Callout

[VVPTD]

Good Morning All!
I have this part (shown below) that I am trying to program the true position for. My initial alignment for the part was aligned to the center of the OD and plane -A-. I have adjusted my alignment so that XPLUS is lined up with the 15° BSC dimension (the center line of the slot). I measured the slot as a measured slot and I am able to output my FCF correctly but when it measures it shows on the report that the SLTS1 measures at 44.4526. I do not know where it gets that measurement from. Any ideas on why or how to fix?

Here is the code for the adjusted alignment, the measured slot, and TP.

Try changing your OUTPUT ALIGNMENT from Current Alignment to Datum Reference Frame. Also, I'd suggest removing the keyed-in material boundary sizes, leaving them default should be fine unless you were explicitly directed to do so.

Should this not be a planar tolerance zone? Which axes are you reporting Position in?

What is CYL4? in your alignment? In your FCF you have CYL1 as Datum B. Since you are doing manual hits on the slot, clean up the nominals. Your Z heights vary and the Y axis hits are not equal and centered about Datum C. Since Datum B is offset from the center of the piece, are your offsets correct in the program? And yes, you should be in a planar zone as well.


In addition, remove the pound symbol from your naming feature. Only use numbers, letters, and underscores.
