Dimensions, Tolerances and Assemblies
Dimensions
Rules of dimensioning
Dimensions should not be duplicated, i.e. same dimension should not be repeated on different views, or the same information need not be given in two different ways
-
Dimension lines, extension lines and object outlines should not cross or overlap
Tolerances
Importance of tolerance
If tolerance is not given, exact measurement of the parts must be made. Rejection rate will be very high and is not realistic.
The range of tolerance will translate into the manufacturing method needed, since different manufacturing method has different degree of tolerance.
Same parts can be made from different companies and they have to be interchangeable. Tolerance ensures good quality control for parts from different companies.
-
Types of tolerances
Bilateral Tolerance: allowed to vary in two directions from the specified dimension. Both directions need not vary by the same amount.

Assembly Modelling
In an assembly model, multiple parts are brought together to define a larger, more complex product representation. Assembly modelling facilitates the collaboration among designers, engineers, manufacturing technicians and others to ensure a product assembly works. Individuals in different disciplines can work concurrently, resulting in faster and less costly delivery of products to market.
