GD&T/calypso question


Recommended Posts

Hello, I am working with a print and I have never seen this type of true position callout, It is using a common datum between two slots that are offset from each other, with mmc. I drew a quick drawing of what I am seeing to make it easier to explain. Do I create a symmetry plane between the 2 centers of the slots? If so, how do I apply MMC to it? Any help is appreciated, thank you

EDIT: just noticed i drew mmc for datum D, datum d does not have mmc that is my mistake

I get what they are trying to do, I'm not 100% sure if it's legal haha. Each slot on its own is a feature of size so MMC could be applied. Technically, the A-B plane is not a FOS, so MMC should not be applicable. I'm about 90% sure on this, but someone may be able to confirm this. 

Either way, the software doesn't allow for it with a symmetry plane.

If you must have this, you may be able to add the bonus tolerance with PCM. If you right-click the true position tolerance box, you can add a formula to add the additional bonus.
