ISO versus ANSI

May 07, 2004 4 Replies

Do you have any sources for dimensioning standards; recommended drawing formats based on industry?



I design consumer products. All manufacturing is done in the US. American/British/ips is the only unit system acceptable. ISO dimensioning properties seem less clumsy in SW04.3. Any comments on mixing ISO with Inch/Pound/Second units?



Thx


If you initially install and specify ISO, make sure you get a 3rd angle projection drawing template. I have seen many people get the 1st angle template and get drawings that don't make sense to Americans.
