Hi What was the plane of projection for the two cylinders. We’re they the same or different Also how to locate in which direction is the drift - if possible to rectify by machining
Hello Sir...pls let me know if this method give a reliable result. Currently we are stuck in the same. If we measure coaxiality of one cylinder with respect to other...it show x value. And if we measure vice versa..the results are way different. We have half inch axis length .......needed to be coaxial with another half inch axis ..... separated by 4 inch . The dia of cylinder is 1 inch. Both the cylinders are done in one setting from one direction.
Hi...recently i used this method to check concentricity....two coaxial cylinder were 19.8 and 19.6 from a plane having nomial dim 19.8 plus minus 0.3...but it shows concetricity of 1 mm...how is this possible
The reason we/you are seeing such a large number is due to the measurement uncertainty and trig. Design engineers do this often without consideration of how small/short the axis is and how far the other bore is from the datum. A 0.0008" form error over 1" axis length projected over 10" means 0.008" off center at that 10". I run into this allot and commonly subject using cylindricity across both bores and making them both the datum.
Hey there, Josh. The client was holding tighter tolerances but this was a video showing theory and approach to the data capture using the laser tracker.
@@diversedimensions1 Good points. Your method is spot on. The reason we/you are seeing such a large number is due to the measurement uncertainty and trig.

Anyways, good video and keep sharing the info. our industry needs to talk more about these things
@@jonathanbatson6541 Thanks so much for the reply here, Jonathan. Totally correct on the geometry effect here. It is always a good conversation on where and when to use concentricity
@@diversedimensions1 So what would be some examples of a good time to use it? We use a laser tracker a lot for setting up and inspection of large repair parts, which most of the time require bores to be in alignment across relatively large distances.
@@spencercampbell8396 Hey there, Spencer. Thanks for reaching out and I would be interested in checking your drawing out and seeing what you guys are getting into with concentricity with your tracker. What is a good email address for you? I will reach out and maybe we can schedule a Zoom or a Teams visit.
Hi

Hey there, Faizan. So good to hear from you and thanks for reaching out. What is your email address that I can reply to?

Thanks Anant! Can you send me your workspace? jeff@diversedimensions.com I will take a look and give you some ideas.
@@diversedimensions1 Sir I am sending you a photo of job. Which we have mfgd. And I have indicated the cylinders and axis.

Thanks for sending this reply over, Inderjeet. Can you send over your compressed workspace? I will take a look.
@@diversedimensions1 yes.. sure..plz share your email id

Did the customer agree with your 0.011" concentricity? This is a pretty classic example of where not to use it.
