Dimensioning of a Shaft
Aditi Consultancy Services, Bangalore

RULE 1 (Limits of Size Rule):
Where only a size dimension is given
a) The size dimensions at any cross section must be
within the size tolerance.
b) The surface(s) shall not extend beyond the perfect
form defined by the MMC Size.
c) The form may vary within an envelope between the
MMC and LMC.

RULE 2
Geometric tolerances for a feature of size are
understood to be applied regardless of feature
size (RFS).

If MMC or LMC is required, it must be placed in
the feature control frame.

MMC Virtual Condition
Aditi Consultancy Services, Bangalore
Virtual condition is the collective effect of size and
geometric tolerances that must be considered in
determining the fit or clearance between mating parts
or features.

To calculate virtual condition:
External features:
MMC size + Geometrical Tolerance
Internal features:
MMC size Geometrical Tolerance
A virtual condition will exist only for tolerances that control
size features.

Plug Gauges
A Plug Gauge is an precision-sized gauge which is used for size control
of internal diameters/holes.
Go No-Go gauges are double ended. If the Go end is sized to 20mm,
the No-Go end is slightly bigger, i.e. 20.020mm. If the Go end fits in the
machined hole and the No-Go end doesnt then the hole is the an
acceptable size.
The tolerance on the gauges can vary and each gauge is usually specific
to a particular job.

Ring Gauges
A Ring Gauge is a precision-sized gauge used for size control of external
