Tolerance of Cylinders is possible in
Cartesian and in either Linear, RFS,
MMC and LMC formats.

To activate the tolerance tool see
Working with Geomet Tolerance
Windows
Figures 1 and 2 show Bilateral Tolerance on Cartesian and Polar formats respectively.
To better understand how these formats are
used
and
interpreted, refer
to Introduction to Tolerance.
Figures 3 and 4 show Positional Tolerance on Cartesian and Polar formats respectively.
To better understand how these formats are
used and interpreted, refer to
Introduction to Tolerance. Circles may also utilize
Datum Bonus Tolerance when established in the
current PCS.
NOTE: The application of MMC and LMC is calculated at the intersection of the
cylinder and the PCS base plane. The resulting intersect provides a 2D Pierce Point and a
2D Circle. The MMC and LMC calculations work on the 2D Circle and does not reflect the
axis and length of the cylinder.
