The discussion confirms that there is no specific standard for creating shop floor drawings for sheet metal parts. Participants agree that ASME Y14.3 is the primary reference used for these drawings, with the details often relying on the inherent knowledge of professionals in the sheet metal community. The lack of a dedicated standard for sheet metal drawing emphasizes the need for practitioners to be well-versed in ASME Y14.3 guidelines.
PREREQUISITESEngineers, designers, and manufacturing professionals involved in sheet metal fabrication and drawing creation will benefit from this discussion.
FredGarvin said:None that I know of. All drawings follow ASME Y14.3 in one form or another. Mostly it is inherent knowledge within that community as to what needs to be on a drawing.
