TOLERANCE

ISODRAFT Reference Manual

Command Reference Section : Alphabetical Command Reference : TOLERANCE


Function:	Specifies the maximum misalignment between components regarded as having the same axis.
Description:	By default, two components will be plotted as though they have a common axis if the orientation of their axes differs by less than 0.06 degrees, or if their axes are offset by less than 1.00mm. The TOLERANCE command allows the user to specify a different alignment tolerance, either as an angular difference or as a linear offset.
Examples:	TOL OFFSET 0.125 INCH Two components will be plotted as having a common axis if their axes are offset by less than 0.125 inch. TOL ANGLE 0.15 Two components will be plotted as having a common axis if the orientations of their axes differ by less than 0.15 degrees. TOL DEFAULT Resets the default values of 1mm offset or 0.06 degrees angular difference.
Restrictions:	If gaskets of less than 1mm thickness are detailed, a tolerance offset of less than the gasket thickness must be set. Care should be taken when specifying non-default values, since large tolerances can cause falling lines to be shown incorrectly. For reliable plotting of falling and skewed lines, a lower value than the default (say TOL OFF 0.01) may be appropriate.
