Summary
Profile MSS (multi-single segment) feature control frames apply multiple profile requirements to the same surface or pattern.
Definition
An MSS profile FCF contains two or more stacked profile segments. Each segment is a separate requirement and may reference different datum frames. The true profile must be located by basic or toleranced dimensions.
When to use it
Use profile MSS when a surface needs multiple profile requirements, such as different datum frames for functional checks.
Examples
Example: Profile MSS with different datum frames
Two profile segments that reference different datums for the same surface.
Common mistakes
- Not locating the true profile with basic or toleranced dimensions.
- Repeating the same datum reference set across segments.
- Applying the profile to a datum surface in an ambiguous way.
- Using prohibited modifiers such as diameter, MMC, or LMC.
