INTRODUCTION
Here Feature of Size is used as a datum features When a diameter is used as a datum feature, It results in a datum axis When a planar is used as a datum feature, it results in a datum center plane
GOAL1.1 Describe the datum that results from a FOS datum feature
Datum identification symbol can be touching the surface of a diameter to specify axis as the datum
Datum Terminology
Datum feature A Datum feature simulator / Gauge element Simulated datum axis A Simulated datum Feature A
GOAL1.5 Draw the datum feature simulator for an external and internal FOS datum feature (RFS primary)
When a FOS is used as a datum feature and referenced as a primary datum RFS Devices that are adjustable in size-such as a precision chuck, collets, or centering device are used as the datum feature simulator. The datum feature simulator holds the part securely on the datum feature.
When a FOS is used as a datum feature and referenced as a primary datum RFS, the following applies:
An adjustable gage element is needed to simulate the true geometric counterpart of a datum feature The part is oriented by the gage The part is held securely in the gage
GOAL1.6 Draw the datum feature simulator for an FOS datum feature (RFS secondary).
When referencing the datums with the face primary and the diameter secondary (RFS) The part will have a minimum of three-point contact with the primary datum plane. The secondary datum feature simulator will be adjustable in size. The datum axis is perpendicular to the primary datum plane. A second and third datum plane will be associated with the datum axis.
GOAL1.7 Draw the datum feature simulator for an FOS datum feature (RFS tertiary).
GOAL2.8 Draw the datum feature simulator for an external and internal FOS datum feature (MMC primary).
When diameter is designated as a datum feature and referenced in a feature control frame as primary at MMC A fixed-gage element may be used as the datum feature simulator The size of fixed-gage element is equal to the MMC (WBC) of the datum feature Depending upon the actual mating size of the datum feature, a datum shift may be available
GOAL2.9 Draw the datum feature simulator for an FOS datum feature (MMC secondary with virtual condition)
Datum axis secondary (MMC) , Datum centre plane tertiary (MMC) (Contd )
When referencing the datums with the face primary, diameter secondary (MMC), and slot tertiary (MMC), the following conditions apply: The part will have a minimum of three points of contact with the primary datum plane The datum feature simulators will be fixed size gage elements. The datum axis is the axis of the datum feature simulator
Datum axis secondary (MMC) , Datum centre plane tertiary (MMC) (Contd )
The datum axis is perpendicular to the primary datum plane Depending upon the datum feature's actual mating size, a datum shift may be available. Second and third datum planes are to be associated with the datum axis The tertiary datum center plane is the center plane of the tertiary datum feature simulator
GOAL2.10 Draw the datum axis when using a pattern of FOS as a datum feature (MMC secondary)
Datum sequence
Panel-A
GOAL2.11 Explain how changing the datum reference sequence in a feature control frame affects the part and gauge
Panel A
An adjustable gauge is required. No datum shift is permissible on datum feature A The part is oriented in the gage by datum feature A Datum feature B will have a minimum of one point contact with its datum feature simulator The orientation of the holes will be relative to datum axis A
Panel B
Panel B
Datum feature B will have 3- point contact with its datum plane The part is oriented in the gauge by datum feature B The orientation of holes will be relative to datum plane B An adjustable gauge is required and no datum shift is permissible on datum feature A
Panel C
Panel C
When simulating datum A, fixed gauge is allowed and the gauge allows datum shift Datum feature B will have 3-point contact with its datum plane The part is oriented in the gauge by datum feature B The orientation of the hole will be relative to datum plane B
