![]() ![]() These datums will intersect each other and the point of all the intersections is called datum reference (datum reference frame). This datum system is commonly called datum A, B and C (sometimes until D or E depending on tolerance situations and requirements). Datum and datum referenceĮspecially for GD&T tolerance with relations (for example orientation, location and run-out) that require datum, a datum system is necessary to be the reference point for all GD&T tolerance verification and comparison. This material condition concept can be a huge saving in the quality inspection process of parts.įinally, real examples showing the benefits of using MMC and LMC symbols in feature of size are presented at the end of this post. Material condition is a condition to explain how a larger or smaller tolerance values can be obtained when a feature of interest is made smaller or bigger that its nominal size. All feature positions will be based on this datum reference. Because, all GD&T conformance and non-conformance decisions are based on verifying features with respect to one or more tolerance zones.ĭatum reference provides the origin of coordinates of all GD&T tolerances on a part. Tolerance zone maybe the most fundamental building block of GD&T. The understanding of these three elements is essential to thoroughly understand GD&T. ![]() The elements are datum reference (datum reference frame), tolerance zone and material condition.Īll GD&T tolerances are built on top of all these three elements. This post explains some fundamental elements of GD&T. ![]()
