[Ca...] Posted January 18, 2021 Share Posted January 18, 2021 My part has an internal pocket with a profile callout with unequally distributed tolerance. It's a simple pocket, it's square, with rads in the corners. I've dealt with unequally distributed profiles before, but it's been a while. I can't post images of the model, or the print. When I tolerance the pocket using Bilateral with unequal distribution, and set the Inside/Outside switch accordingly, my part's in tolerance. But when I go to CAD>Evaluation and turn on tolerance frames, they show the OPPOSITE of what I'd expect. I think I'm inspecting this part correctly, but I can't explain the inverted tolerance frames. Am I missing something? Link to comment https://qualityforum.zeiss.com/topic/13690-bilateral-profile-application/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
[Ri...] Posted January 18, 2021 Share Posted January 18, 2021 If you ever get confused. I like to use Curve to inspect a Profile setup the same way, but then plot it, so I can see which way the tolerance is going. That has helped me in the past.

[Ro...] Posted January 19, 2021 Share Posted January 19, 2021 I always think of Max & Min as Plus and Minus material. an outer surface is + when the diameters & distances are big, a cavity or hole is + when the diameters & distances are small. When the part is physically heavier than nominal, it is Max condition.
