WHAT'S COVERED

OBJECTIVES

1) Review the basic concepts and introduce the more complex concepts of the Y14.5M-1994 standard
2) Provide participants with the knowledge of proper Datum Feature selection and specification
3) Enable participants to calculate functional tolerances for position and other tolerances


REASONS FOR ATTENDING

Your drawings have GD&T on them! If you have been through the GD&T Basic Level, and you need more knowledge and skill to increase your effectiveness, this course is for you. In this program, we focus on the more advanced concepts of GD&T - another step closer to becoming a GD&T expert.

PROGRAM OUTLINE

The program begins with a review of GD&T, then continues with practical exercises designed to enhance knowledge and build confidence. This class consists of lecture, maximum experience and participation format. The subject matter covered is (as a minimum):

- Introduction: objectives, review Basic GD&T.
- General rules of dimensioning and drafting review.
- Review of the more complex controls: composite position, tolerance of position, etc.
- Datum Reference Frames: proper selection and utilization exercises.
- Calculating tolerances for maximum producibility and 100% interchangeability.
- Functional gauge design: "Soft" or "Paper" as well as tooled gauges


 

CONTINUING SERVICE

We are particularly concerned that the individuals that we teach actually retain that which we and their companies have worked so hard to present. This concern is precisely why we offer, for each participant of our seminar, access to a senior consultant (usually the instructor of the course) who will be available to answer any follow-on questions after the course via telephone or fax.
