SVA Catalog for Advanced Parts
This page provides links to data charts that allow a designer
to chose an appropriate AFAB™ alignment kit, and
incorporate the kit into a project.
The first six charts show basic dimensions of thirty six
advanced AFAB™ kits designed for the imperial
measurement system. Each chart shows data for three
AFAB families (Tab. 2 shows the definition of a family)
tabularized in two tables. Each group of three families is
represented by two charts and four tables.
The metric counterparts are shown on the following six

All seventy two parts are divided into groups of four, marked
with alternating
colors. Each group constitutes a family. Please note that all

with precision, and a stroke of the adjustment. The following
table shows basic features of all parts within a group, and an
