LABORATORY PRACTICAL
Goal
To create a drawing to ISO standards.

Method
In this exercise, you create a drawing that follows the ISO standard by changing the drawing setup file and defining ISO tolerance tables for hole or shaft dimensions.

EXERCISE 1: Creating a Drawing in Accordance with the ISO Standard

Task 1. Retrieve the ISO_DRAWING.PRT in Part mode as shown in the following figure, and obtain information about how the part was created.

Figure 3: Part with Tolerances

1. Turn on the tolerance display using the ENVIRONMENT dialog box. Display the MODEL TREE as necessary. 2. Check the dimensions of the first protrusion. Click Modify and select PROTRUSION ID 9 from the MODEL TREE.

3. Continue to use modify to check the dimensions of hole id 465. Notice that the diameter dimension is displayed in plus/minus format. 4. Check the remaining features using the MODEL TREE. Task 2. Change the tolerance standard from ANSI to ISO. Since the cover will hold bearings, you will change additional dimensions to display a tolerance. 1. Click Utilities > Options to change the configuration file. 2. Add the configuration file options.
