Profile tolerances are typically used on irregular surfaces where flatness and position tolerances are insufficient to describe the part requirements. Runout tolerances are typically applied to rotating parts to maintain the form and location of features with respect to their bearing surfaces. This interactive, onine course will show you how to properly apply and interpret profile tolerances for both surface and line elements, how to reference datums and apply basic dimensions to describe features, and how to use composite profile tolerances to reflect specific feature requirements.
Describe how to apply profile tolerances to surfaces or linear elements
Explain how to correctly identify and prioritize datum references
Express how to interpret and apply MMC designators to profile tolerance values and to datums when appropriate
Relate how to interpret and apply a runout or total runout tolerance
