Overview:Geometric Dimensioning and Tolerancing (GD&T) is a standardized symbolic language and design methodology used on engineering drawings and 3D models to ensure the product requirements are clearly understood by everyone using the information. GD&T are the tools by which we know a product will fit or align properly before it is manufactured. The use of and ability to understand GD&T is required by many large organizations and this requirement is passed onto the suppliers.
This course provides GD&T system concepts, rules, legal implications, tools and techniques from design, inspection, manufacturing, and concurrent engineering points of view. Learn functional dimensioning and tolerancing, explained in detail with many examples, all the symbology as well as the legal reasons for GD&T and its practical applications. Gain an understanding of how GD&T eliminates the deficiencies of plus and minus (+/-) dimensioning and tolerancing. This level 1 fundamental course is based on the ASME Y14.5-2009 Standard. Books are supplied and a calculator is recommended.
Who Should Attend:Anyone who deals with engineering drawings or annotated models is an ideal candidiate for this course. Engineering, design, inspection, quality assurance, quality control, manufacturing, assembly, service, purchasing, management, and other staff can also benefit from this material.
