Introduction

This document is a geometrical product specification (GPS) standard and is to be regarded as a

complementary ISO GPS standard. It influences chain link B of the chain of standards on mouldingssize,

form, orientation and location.

The ISO GPS matrix model given in ISO 14638 gives an overview of the ISO GPS system, of which this

document is a part. The fundamental rules of ISO GPS given in ISO 8015 apply to this document and the

default decision rules given in ISO 14253-1 apply to specifications made in accordance with this

document, unless otherwise indicated.

For more detailed information about the relation of this document to other standards and the GPS matrix

model, see Annex I.

This document gives terms and definitions and symbols for product definition indications for tolerancing

of moulded parts, which are to be used in addition to the usual standards on geometrical product

specifications (GPS), such as ISO 1101, ISO 5458 and ISO 5459.

According to this document, ± tolerances are only used for sizes and the following non-features of size:

wall thicknesses, fillets and chamfers. Positional tolerances are also applied for sizes specified

with ± tolerances. For all other tolerancing purposes, geometrical tolerances according to ISO 1101 are

used. For all other non-features of size, e.g.such as step dimension, ± tolerances are not recommended.

See the ISO 14405 series for background information.

This document defines a system of tolerance grades, draft angle (taper) grades and machining allowance

grades for cast metals and their alloys.

ISO/TS 8062-2 states, in relation to the accumulation method where general dimensional tolerances

according to ISO 8062-3 are used, that there is not yet a clearly defined way in the context of the future

system of ISO GPS standards, to apply the rules for calculating the final moulded part nominal dimensions

from the final machined moulded part nominal dimensions, taking into account the miscellaneous

influences. One of the reasons for this problem is the lack of a proper workpiece datum system.

The general dimensional tolerances apply independently from each other (without a datum system). It is

difficult or even impossible to assess what the overall shape of the workpiece can become.

The general dimensional tolerances (±tolerances) of ISO 8062-3 apply not only to sizes but also to centre

distances and dimensions defining profile contours. This is in contradiction to the ISO GPS rules (e.g.

ISO 14405-2).

The general tolerances of ISO 8062-4 are not in compliance with the rules of ISO 22081 with respect to

the general geometrical tolerancing.

Furthermore, with 3D CAD the nominal dimensions are not always visible in the model. As the general

dimensional tolerances depend on the nominal dimensions, they cannot be used any moreanymore when

only the CAD model is available. To avoid these problems this document was developed as a parallel

approach fully conforming with the ISO GPS rules given in, for example, ISO 14405-2 by introducing

profile tolerancing and a datum system.

If there is no datum system specified or if the datum surfaces are to be machined after moulding then

only ISO 8062-3 can be applied.

For the development of a new product, it is strongly recommended that customer and foundry should

discuss and agree on the method of tolerancing to be applied to the product. This also includes casting

method, calculation methods, cast material and draft angles, which are crucial for the process.

FINAL DRAFT INTERNATIONAL STANDARD ISO/FDIS 8062-4:2023(E)
Geometrical product specifications — Dimensional and
geometrical tolerances for moulded parts — Part 4: Rules and
general tolerances for castings using profile tolerancing in a
general datum system
1 Scope

This document specifies the rules for geometrical dimensioning and tolerancing of final moulded parts

and parts machined out of moulded parts. It also specifies rules and conventions for the indications of

these requirements in technical product documentation and specifies the proportions and dimensions of

the graphical symbols to be used.

This document provides symbols for identifying the relative completeness of the moulded features and

parts. These graphical symbols differ from the graphical symbols for surface texture according to

ISO 1302, which are notably larger.

This document specifies general geometrical tolerances using surface profile tolerances related to a

general datum system that remains on the final part. It also specifies machining allowances and draft

angles (tapers) for castings in all cast metals and their alloys produced by various casting manufacturing

processes.

This document establishes the general principles for presentation of general geometrical tolerances that

apply to 2D technical drawings in all disciplines and trades but which are also applicable to 3D

applications.
NOTE All figures are shown in 2D views only.
When cast datum surfaces are machined, this document is not applicable.

Foreword

ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards

bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out

through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical

committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International

organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work.

ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of

electrotechnical standardization.

Introduction

This document is a geometrical product specification (GPS) standard and is to be regarded as a

complementary ISO GPS standard. It influences chain link B of the chain of standards on size, form,

orientation and location.

The ISO GPS matrix model given in ISO 14638 gives an overview of the ISO GPS system, of which this

document is a part. The fundamental rules of ISO GPS given in ISO 8015 apply to this document and

the default decision rules given in ISO 14253-1 apply to specifications made in accordance with this

document, unless otherwise indicated.

For more detailed information about the relation of this document to other standards and the GPS

matrix model, see Annex I.

This document gives terms and definitions and symbols for product definition indications for

tolerancing of moulded parts, which are to be used in addition to the usual standards on geometrical

product specifications (GPS), such as ISO 1101, ISO 5458 and ISO 5459.

According to this document, ± tolerances are only used for sizes and the following non-features of

size: wall thicknesses, fillets and chamfers. Positional tolerances are also applied for sizes specified

with ± tolerances. For all other tolerancing purposes, geometrical tolerances according to ISO 1101 are

used. For all other non-features of size, such as step dimension, ± tolerances are not recommended. See

the ISO 14405 series for background information.

This document defines a system of tolerance grades, draft angle (taper) grades and machining allowance

grades for cast metals and their alloys.

ISO/TS 8062-2 states, in relation to the accumulation method where general dimensional tolerances

according to ISO 8062-3 are used, that there is not yet a clearly defined way in the context of the

future system of ISO GPS standards to apply the rules for calculating the final moulded part nominal

dimensions from the final machined moulded part nominal dimensions, taking into account the

miscellaneous influences. One of the reasons for this problem is the lack of a proper workpiece datum

system.

The general dimensional tolerances apply independently from each other (without a datum system). It

is difficult or even impossible to assess what the overall shape of the workpiece can become.

The general dimensional tolerances (±tolerances) of ISO 8062-3 apply not only to sizes but also to centre

distances and dimensions defining profile contours. This is in contradiction to the ISO GPS rules (e.g.

ISO 14405-2).

The general tolerances of ISO 8062-4 are not in compliance with the rules of ISO 22081 with respect to

the general geometrical tolerancing.

Furthermore, with 3D CAD the nominal dimensions are not always visible in the model. As the general

dimensional tolerances depend on the nominal dimensions, they cannot be used anymore when only the

CAD model is available. To avoid these problems this document was developed as a parallel approach

fully conforming with the ISO GPS rules given in, for example, ISO 14405-2 by introducing profile

tolerancing and a datum system.

If there is no datum system specified or if the datum surfaces are to be machined after moulding then

only ISO 8062-3 can be applied.

For the development of a new product, it is strongly recommended that customer and foundry should

discuss and agree on the method of tolerancing to be applied to the product. This also includes casting

method, calculation methods, cast material and draft angles, which are crucial for the process.

FINAL DRAFT INTERNATIONAL STANDARD ISO/FDIS 8062-4:2023(E)
Geometrical product specifications (GPS) — Dimensional
and geometrical tolerances for moulded parts —
Part 4:
Rules and general tolerances for castings using profile
tolerancing in a general datum system
1 Scope

This document specifies the rules for geometrical dimensioning and tolerancing of final moulded parts

and parts machined out of moulded parts. It also specifies rules and conventions for the indications of

these requirements in technical product documentation and specifies the proportions and dimensions

of the graphical symbols to be used.

This document provides symbols for identifying the relative completeness of the moulded features

and parts. These graphical symbols differ from the graphical symbols for surface texture according to

ISO 1302,1
1 Cancelled and replaced by ISO 21920-1.

This document specifies general geometrical tolerances using surface profile tolerances related to a

general datum system that remains on the final part. It also specifies machining allowances and draft

angles (tapers) for castings in all cast metals and their alloys produced by various casting manufacturing

processes.

This document establishes the general principles for presentation of general geometrical tolerances

that apply to 2D technical drawings in all disciplines and trades but which are also applicable to 3D

applications.
NOTE All figures are shown in 2D views only.
When cast datum surfaces are machined, this document is not applicable.
