Std Gdt Concentricity

gdt::concentricityFunction in std::gdt

GD&T concentricity annotation specifying how closely a feature's median axis must align with datum references.

This is part of MBD.

Concentricity is a location tolerance for features of size. It controls the derived median points of the annotated feature relative to a datum axis. The tolerance zone is cylindrical, with a diameter equal to tolerance. Datum references are required.

In American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME) Y14.5, concentricity is applied regardless of feature size (RFS) and does not use maximum material condition (MMC) or least material condition (LMC) modifiers. ASME Y14.5-2018 removed concentricity in favor of other controls such as position or runout where appropriate. ISO standards use the name coaxiality for this concept.

Arguments

NameTypeDescriptionRequired
tolerancenumber(Length)The diameter of the cylindrical tolerance zone.Yes
datums[string; 1+]The datum references to display in the feature control frame. Supports up to primary, secondary, and tertiary datums.Yes
faces[TaggedFace; 1+]The faces to be annotated.No
edges[Edge; 1+]The edges to be annotated.No
precisionnumber(_)The number of decimal places to display. The default is 3. Must be greater than or equal to 0 and less than or equal to 9.No
framePositionPoint2dThe position of the feature control frame relative to the leader arrow. The default is [100mm, 100mm].No
framePlanePlaneThe plane in which to display the feature control frame. The default is XY. Other standard planes like XZ and YZ can also be used. The frame may be displayed in a plane parallel to the given plane.No
leaderScalenumber(_)Visual scale of the leader dot. The default is 1.0, which maps to the calibrated normal dot size. The value is normalized against fontSize so the dot stays consistent as text size changes. Must be greater than 0.No
fontSizenumber(Length)The model-space height to use for annotation text. The default is 10mm. Explicit units are supported; bare numbers use the file's default length unit. This changes the scene size, not the internal raster texture quality.No
