Purpose of note: |
Sample notes: |
ASME Y14.5M-1994
Reference: |
For
parts that are plated or coated, it is required
that a note appears on the drawing stating when
the dimensional limits apply. |
Examples:
DIMENSIONAL LIMITS APPLY AFTER
PLATING DIMENSIONAL LIMITS APPLY BEFORE
PLATING |
2.4.1 |
To
override Rule #1 |
PERFECT
FORM AT MMC NOT REQD |
2.7.2 |
To
establish a boundary of perfect form at MMC to
control the relationship between
features. |
PERFECT
ORIENTATION (or COAXIALITY or LOCATION OF
SYMMETRICAL FEATURES) AT MMC REQUIRED FOR RELATED
FEATURES |
2.7.3 |
To
designate the specific feature of a thread, gear,
spline, etc. which a geometric tolerance
applies. |
MAJOR
DIA PITCH DIA MINOR DIA |
2.10 |
Sample note that must appear on a drawing
when the symbol is
applied. |
FEATURES
IDENTIFIED AS STATISTICALLY TOLERANCED
SHALL BE
PRODUCED WITH STATISTICAL PROCESS CONTROLS, (OR TO
THE MORE RESTRICTIVE ARITHEMETIC LIMITS) |
2.16.2 |
When
it is necessary to relate linear and angular
dimensions to a datum reference framework. This is
not a substitute for datum references in a feature
control frame. |
UNLESS
OTHERWISE SPECIFIED, DIMENSIONS ARE RELATED TO
DATUM A (PRIMARY), DATUM B (SECONDARY), AND DATUM
C (TERTIARY) |
4.4 |
To
override simultaneous
requirements. |
SEP
REQT |
4.5.12, 5.3.6.2 |
To
override a separate requirements note or to invoke
simultaneous requirements for the lower segment of
multiple composite feature control
frames. |
SIM
REQT |
4.5.12.1 |
To
avoid having to apply the basic dimension symbol
to each basic dimension. |
DIMENSIONS
LOCATING TRUE POSITION ARE BASIC |
5.2.1.1 |
Placed beneath a feature control
frame to invoke the Boundary
concept. |
BOUNDARY |
5.10.1, 6.5.5.1 |
To
indicate that a feature control frame applies to
multiple holes shown on a common
axis. |
TWO
COAXIAL HOLES |
5.11.1.6 |
To
avoid having to apply the basic dimension symbol
to each basic dimension. |
UNTOLERANCED DIMENSIONS ARE
BASIC. |
Fig. 6-12 |
Placed below a feature control frame
to indicate that the profile of a surface control
applies to the entire part. |
ALL
OVER |
6.5.2 |
To
control only an individual line element of a
surface. |
EACH
ELEMENT or EACH RADIAL ELEMENT |
6.6.1.1 |
Used
on repetitive patterns to reduce the number of
different datums identified. |
INDIVIDUALLY |
5.7 |
To
specify where a tolerance applies. This permits
closer control of a feature at one
surface. |
