Lecture Autodesk inventor: Tolerancing. After completing this chapter you will be able to: Apply English and metric tolerances to dimensions, calculate standard tolerances for precision fits, apply tolerances using the basic shaft and basic hole systems, identify and draw geometric dimensioning and tolerancing symbols. | Tolerancing Motivation Products are mass-produced Parts manufactured in different parts of world, brought together for assembly Parts must be interchangeable Variability always exists in manufacturing processes Designer must consider: Allowable range of variation of part features How parts fit together in assembly Tolerances Tolerance specifies range for size and location of features on a part that will allow part to function properly Used to control variance that exists on all manufactured parts State tolerances as generously as possible Provides for a wider variety of processes that can be used to manufacture part Keeps part cost low A tolerance is the difference between the maximum and minimum size limits on a part Declaring Tolerances Methods to indicate tolerances include: General tolerance notes ., ALL DIMENSIONS HELD TO ± .05 Not good practice Limit tolerances Plus and minus tolerances Geometric Dimensioning and Tolerancing (GDT) Limit Tolerances Limit tolerances state upper and lower limits for the dimension range The tolerance is the difference between the upper and lower limits Plus/Minus Tolerances Plus/minus tolerances specify a range that is added or subtracted from a dimension value Tolerance Stacking Tolerance for one dimension added to next dimension in a chain Results in a large variation in location of last feature in chain Baseline Dimensioning Locates a series of features from a common base feature Tolerances do not stack up Fit Refers to how tightly (loosely) mating parts must fit together when assembled Tolerances specified based upon fit Fit Types Clearance – internal member (., shaft) always smaller than external member (., hole) Interference – internal member always larger than external member Transition – either internal or external may be larger so that parts either slide together or can be forced together Fit Types - 2 Allowance Difference between smallest hole size and largest shaft size Allowance is either minimum clearance . | Tolerancing Motivation Products are mass-produced Parts manufactured in different parts of world, brought together for assembly Parts must be interchangeable Variability always exists in manufacturing processes Designer must consider: Allowable range of variation of part features How parts fit together in assembly Tolerances Tolerance specifies range for size and location of features on a part that will allow part to function properly Used to control variance that exists on all manufactured parts State tolerances as generously as possible Provides for a wider variety of processes that can be used to manufacture part Keeps part cost low A tolerance is the difference between the maximum and minimum size limits on a part Declaring Tolerances Methods to indicate tolerances include: General tolerance notes ., ALL DIMENSIONS HELD TO ± .05 Not good practice Limit tolerances Plus and minus tolerances Geometric Dimensioning and Tolerancing (GDT) Limit Tolerances Limit tolerances state upper
