[Gu...] Posted August 25 Share Posted August 25 Hello all, I have a part with 3 holes. First one is an axis (datum A), second is an axis (datum B) and the third is located by A and B (see below). My question is : how to construct the DRF A¦B according to ISO standard ? I made a 3d-line (datum A) for the primary rotation and X origin and Y origin. But I made a CIRCLE on datum B for the secondary rotation (can't use a 3d-line since it's same direction than datum A). How would you construct that in calypso ? Thanks 🙂 Guillaume Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
[Cl...] Posted August 25 Share Posted August 25 (edited) Are there basic dimensions from hole to hole that you left off? Edited August 25 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
[Ch...] Posted August 25 Share Posted August 25 try the new 'parallel cylinder' option ? , I think that is for 2 cylinders that form one datum (mainly in ISO). Alternatively, you could use -A- as primary and secondary, and -B- for rotation or tertiary only. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
[Ma...] Posted August 25 Share Posted August 25 I've not tried parallel cylinder so i can not speak for that, but using cylinder A as datum A, then there can be a problem while cylinder B won't be parallel to cylinder A. You can use circle at middle of cylinder B. This you can set rotation at any number ( if Y origin of B is not same as datum A ). But this sketch is not a good one - at least try to mimic real drawing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
[Gu...] Posted August 26 Author Share Posted August 26 Thanks for your repsonses Please sign in to view this quote. Clarke : no, only the two center distances. I'm not sure we can write it like that.

It's good to know there is a way to do it on the latest version 🙂 Please sign in to view this quote. Martin : Yes I can't use cylinder for datum B, so I used a circle in the middle of the cylinder. The sketch match my drawing (miss only the TP of B ¦A). I agree with you that this is not really conventional. I will search for the parallel cylinder on the new version of calypso (I hope we will get it soon !!). Have a good day 🙂 Guillaume Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
[na...] Posted August 26 Share Posted August 26 (edited) Please sign in to view this quote. Since you are on Calypso 2016, recall cylinder into a circle, or make multiple path in circle -> https://qualityforum.zeiss.com/topic/13954-parallel-cylinders-for-secondary-amp-tertiary-datums/?do=findComment&comment=72360 for datum feature B. Parallel cylinder isn't the right choice here, because you have datum system |A|B| and not |A-B|. Edited August 26 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
[Ch...] Posted August 26 Share Posted August 26 yes I would not use a cylinder for a tertiary datum in this case, perhaps reduce to a circle only or a point at an intersection of cylinder and face etc. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
