Advanced Geometric Dimensioning and Tolerancing (GD&T)

Advanced Geometric Dimensioning and Tolerancing (GD&T)

Course Duration: 3 Days

To better define a product to a customer or supplier, Geometric Dimensioning and Tolerancing (GD&T) is often used as a symbolic way of showing specific tolerances on drawings. GD&T is a valuable tool that effectively communicates the design intent to manufacturing and inspection. It is governed by the technical standard ASME Y14.5-2018, published by the American Society of Mechanical Engineers.

This three-day seminar covers advanced aspects of GD&T. In addition to presenting the theory, multiple examples will be provided to show specific applications. Participants will learn to interpret the relationships between the part features and practice how to select datums and create geometric controls for new drawings. Participants are welcome to bring sample prints to the class for discussion or private consultation.
