Chapter 6 Dimensioning  TOPICS Introduction Dimensioning components Dimensioning object’ s features Placement of dimensions.  ENGINEERING DESIGN PROCESS RESULT TRANSFERRED INFORMATION Design Sketches a part of ideas Multiview Shape Create Drawing drawings 1. Size, Location Dimensioning 2. Non-graphic information Manufacture  DEFINITION Dimensioning is the process of specifying part’ s information by using of figures, symbols and notes. This information are such as: 1. Sizes and locations of features 2. Material’s type This course 3. Number required 4. Kind of surface finish 5. Manufacturing process 6. Size and geometric tolerances  DIMENSIONING SYSTEM 1. Metric system : ISO and JIS standards This course Examples 32, 32.5, 32.55, 0.5 (not.5) etc. 2. Decimal-inch system Examples 0.25 (not.25), 5.375 etc. 3. Fractional-inch system 1 3 Examples , 5 etc. 4 8 DIMENSIONING COMPONENTS Extension lines Dimension lines Drawn with (with arrowheads) 4H pencil Leader lines Dimension figures Notes : Lettered with - local note 2H pencil. - general note  EXTENSION LINES indicate the location on the object’s features that are dimensioned.  DIMENSION LINES indicate the direction and extent of a dimension, and inscribe dimension figures. 10 27 13 43  LEADER LINES indicate details of the feature with a local note. 10 27 10 Drill, 2 Holes R16 13 43  DIMENSION LINES Dimension lines should not be spaced too close to each other and to the view. Leave a space at least 2 times of a letter height. 16 34 11 35 Leave a space at least 1 time of a letter height.  DIMENSION FIGURES When there is not enough space for figure or arrows, put it outside either of the extension lines. Not enough space Not enough space for figures for arrows 16.25 1 16.25 1 1 or  DIMENSION FIGURES : UNITS The JIS and ISO standards adopt the unit of Length dimension in millimeters without specifying a unit symbol “mm”. Angular dimension in degree with a symbol “o” place behind the figures (and if necessary minutes and seconds may be used together). DIMENSION FIGURES : ORIENTATION 1. Aligned method The dimension figures are placed so that they are readable from the bottom and right side of the drawing. 2. Unidirectional method The dimension figures are placed so that they can be read from the bottom of the drawing. Do not use both system on the same drawing or on the same series of drawing (JIS Z8317) EXAMPLE : Dimension of length using aligned method. 30 30 30 30 EXAMPLE : Dimension of length using unidirectional method. 30 30 30 30 30 30 30 30 EXAMPLE : Dimension of angle using aligned method. 45o 45o 45o 45o EXAMPLE : Dimension of angle using unidirectional method. 45o 45o 45o 45o 45o 45o 45o 45o  LOCAL NOTES Place the notes near to the feature which they apply, and should be placed outside the view. Always read horizontally. COMMON MISTAKE 10 Drill 10 Drill 10 Drill ≈ 10mm Too far  Dimensioning Practices THE BASIC CONCEPT Dimensioning is accomplished by adding size and location information necessary to manufacture the object. This information have to be Clear Complete Facilitate the - manufacturing method - measurement method EXAMPLE L L Designed part L S L S To manufacture this part S we need to know… 1. Width, depth and S thickness of the part. 2. Diameter and depth of the hole. “S” denotes size dimension. 3. Location of the holes. “L” denotes location dimension.  ANGLE To dimension an angle use circular dimension line having the center at the vertex of the angle. COMMON MISTAKE  ARC Arcs are dimensioned by giving the radius, in the views in which their true shapes appear. The letter “R” is always lettered before the figures to emphasize that this dimension is radius of an arc. or  ARC The dimension figure and the arrowhead should be inside the arc, where there is sufficient space. Sufficient space Sufficient space Insufficient space for both. for arrowhead only. for both. Move figure outside Move both figure and arrow outside R 62.5 R 6.5 R 58.5  ARC Leader line must be radial and inclined with an angle between 30 ~ 60 degs to the horizontal. COMMON MISTAKE R62.5 R62.5 R62.5 R62.5 R62.5 R62.5  ARC Use the foreshortened radial dimension line, when arc’ s center locates outside the sheet or interfere with other views. Method 2 1 Drawing sheet  FILLETS AND ROUNDS Give the radius of a typical fillet only by using a local note. If all fillets and rounds are uniform in size, dimension may be omitted, but it is necessary to add the note “ All fillets and round are Rxx. ” R6.5 R12 NOTE: NOTE: All fillets and round are R6.5 All fillets and round are R6.5 unless otherwise specified. Drawing sheet  CURVE The curve constructed from two or more arcs, requires the dimensions of radii and center’s location. COMMON MISTAKE Tangent point  CYLINDER Size dimensions are diameter and length. Location dimension must be located from its center lines and should be given in circular view. Measurement method  CYLINDER Diameter should be given in a longitudinal view with the symbol “ ” placed before the figures.  100  70  HOLES Size dimensions are diameter and depth. Location dimension must be located from its center lines and should be given in circular view. Measurement method  HOLES : SMALL SIZE Use leader line and local note to specify diameter and hole’s depth in the circular view. 1) Through thickness hole  xx  xx Thru. xx Drill. xx Drill, Thru. or or or  HOLES : SMALL SIZE Use leader line and local note to specify diameter and hole’s depth in the circular view. 2) Blind hole  xx, yy Deep xx Drill, yy Deep or Hole’s depth  HOLES : LARGE SIZE Use extension and Use diametral Use leader line dimension lines dimension line and note  xx  HOLES COMMON MISTAKE  xx  xx  xx Rxx  xx  xx  CHAMFER Use leader line and note to indicate linear distance and angle of the chamfer. S  S For a 45o chamfer or CS S S  RECOMMENDED PRACTICE 1. Extension lines, leader lines should not cross dimension lines. POOR GOOD  RECOMMENDED PRACTICE 2. Extension lines should be drawn from the nearest points to be dimensioned. POOR GOOD  RECOMMENDED PRACTICE 3. Extension lines of internal feature can cross visible lines without leaving a gap at the intersection point. WRONG CORRECT  RECOMMENDED PRACTICE 4. Do not use object line, center line, and dimension line as an extension lines. POOR GOOD  RECOMMENDED PRACTICE 5. Avoid dimensioning hidden lines. POOR GOOD  RECOMMENDED PRACTICE 6. Place dimensions outside the view, unless placing them inside improve the clarity. POOR GOOD  RECOMMENDED PRACTICE 6. Place dimensions outside the view, unless placing them inside improve the clarity. JUST OK !!! BETTER  RECOMMENDED PRACTICE 7. Apply the dimension to the view that clearly show the shape or features of an object. POOR GOOD  RECOMMENDED PRACTICE 8. Dimension lines should be lined up and grouped together as much as possible. POOR GOOD  RECOMMENDED PRACTICE 9. Do not repeat a dimension. POOR GOOD
