Help with alignment

[Smallsvillanova]

Good Morning Everyone,

I am programming for a customer who is requesting we program a part to print. Pictures are attached. I have only been through level 1 of training and I am not too familiar with iterative alignments which is what I believe I need to use to line up this part to be able to report with the proper FCF. I have looked through the forum and haven't been able to find anything that really clarifies it for me. Do I use all targets simultaneously? Does it get broken down into multiple alignments? Do targets get used with regularly defined datums? Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you GD&T - 002.JPGGD&T - 001.JPGGD&T - 003.JPG

Is this an automotive sheet metal? Do you have fixture with pads and clamps to hold it?

Roberto all the A datum targets are on surfaces not facing the same direction how would I go about incorporating the "A" into the feature control frame?

Well, if you're able to select the A points in the iterative level operation (whose surface normal vectors must be almost parallel to each other) you're set.
I would use Legacy dimensions.

Roberto thank you. I appreciate the help

Smallsvillanova My English isn't that good, but I can try:

If datum -F- is a surface then all you need to report is perpendicularity for each hole cause that's all its asking for.

But if we look at this from a "real world" point of view:
The second single-segment it's an attempt to control the location of the holes to each other (10x Ø 7.14). I don't use Xact measure so with the legacy I would create a "Best fit alignment" by
selecting the 10 holes (choose 2D, Rotate and translate) hit OK to create alignment.
Then, output the position dimension of the 10 holes.
Done!

Were you able to construct the iterative alignment using the A targets? What your iterative alignment tolerances set to?
Did it give you a list of errors?
