Production Drawing: 3 Basic Principles of Dimensioning in Production Drawings
Production Drawing: 3 Basic Principles of Dimensioning in Production Drawings
Production drawings[1][2][3] (sometimes called working drawings) are complete sets of drawings that detail the manufacturing and assembly of products. They
are widely used as orthographic views of machine parts
and their assembly. Production drawings are 'drawn
(graphic) information prepared by the design team for
use by the construction or production team, the main
purpose of which is to dene the size, shape, location
and production of the building or component'. For instance, if the engineering drawings call for a screw to
be fastened to a specic torque, the production drawings
would typically describe the tool used to fasten the screw
and how it should be calibrated. The drawings may also
outline the most convenient order in which to assemble
components.[4]

Projection method
Limits, ts, and tolerances of size, form, and position
Production method
Indication of surface roughness and other heat treatments
Material specication and Shape such as Castings,
Forgings, Plates, Rounds, etc.
Material and component specics are commonly provided in the title block of a production drawing. The subassembly (or main assembly of a component) and where
the component will be assembled are usually shown. Production drawings mention the number of parts that are
required for making the assembled unit.

Clearance t Clearance t is dened as a clearance be- Surface roughness can be evaluated with the height and
tween mating parts. In clearance t, there is always a pos- mean roughness index of micro-irregularities. Surface
roughness is dened by the following terms:
itive clearance between the hole and shaft.
Transition t Transition t may result in either an interference or clearance, depending upon the actual values
of the tolerance of individual parts.
Interference t Interference t is obtained if the difference between the hole and shaft sizes is negative before assembly. Interference t generally ranges from minimum to maximum interference. The two extreme cases
of interference are as follows:
Actual prole
Reference prole
Datum prole
Main prole

Surface roughness number, etc.
