    Default Angles & Translation

    Hello All,
    Thank you in advance.


    I am re-drawing a drawing from a PDF to AutoCad2009. These drawings were create in German w/ ISO 2768-1. My 2 questions are as follows, please refer the attachments for clarity.
    #1. On drawing "Angle Confusion" it shows a dimension that has me stumped as far as the angle of the line shown. It shows the dim of (metric) 0.15 x 45 deg. Look at checking the line angularity this is not 45 deg. If someone can help me figure this one out, thank you much. Or am I over-thinking this and just use the dim shown for the machinist to use?


    #2. On drawing "Angle Translation". Can someone please translate what is shown. I did do some translation word by word but it doesn't click in my head what exactly the info is on this dim. Also, as above question it also shows that dim with the 45 deg


    Can't wait for an answer, I'm in dire need of sending these drawings out to get parts made.
    Best Regards
    KenJ

    The dimension states 0.15 x 45 deg so that's what it should be - however, the dimension text is in brackets so it is a "reference dimension" so the angle should (also) be defined elsewhere in the drawing.

    Hello John B,

    Thank you for your feedback. Have any idea on the German translation note?

    I hoped that someone with decent German would offer that but it appears to say -
    "Production Note:-
    start tangential with a dia 1.7 x 45 deg burin [a hand engraving tool?] and taper at 0.15 x 45 deg. " which seems not too likely. Sorry.
