Compound features and symbols are just another great way that SOLIDWORKS MBD is able to identically recreate and comply with the leading-industry standards. Symbols can be added from within the DimXpert manager under the dimension text category. Also to aid in the compliance with ASME standards users can easily add symbols to DimXpert annotations like the continuous feature symbol (CF) seen above. To achieve these results users can create a compound feature, which I demonstrate in some short videos below. The course can be conducted in three 8-hour sessions or with flexible scheduling. This 3-day Fundamentals of GD&T course provides an in-depth study of the terms, rules, symbols, and concepts of geometric dimensioning and tolerancing, as prescribed in the ASME Y14.5-2018 Standard. This graphical representation of the continuous feature helps remove any misconception during manufacturing. Fundamentals of GD&T ASME Y14.5 2018 - Advanced Level. Notice how MBD has the ability to highlight both features of the part when the single DimXpert annotation is selected.

I created these models to show the compliance of SOLIDWORKS MBD to the ASME continuous feature standards. ASME Y14.5-2018 is a replacement of ASME Y14.5-2009. I created some test models of my own to share with you how SOLIDWORKS MBD is complying with the latest industry standards.įigure 2: Test model for continuous features, internal cylindersįigure 3: Test model for continuous features, internal cylindersįigure 4: Test model for continuous features, External Widthįigure 5: Test model for continuous features, External Width
Hence, they are called continuous features. Although these features (holes or planes) are disconnected, they are to be manufactured and inspected together continuously. It is of great importance for SOLIDWORKS MBD to comply with these standards. One case involves coaxial same-sized holes, and the other involves multiple co-planar faces divided by grooves.įigure 1: ASME Continuous feature standards
