Advanced GD&T
Even with an understanding of the fundamentals of GD&T, many professionals still lack the confidence to expertly and deliberately apply geometric tolerancing and perform tolerance stack-up analyses to clearly define their product designs. Like with any language, this deeper understanding is built off the fundamentals.
Course Outline:
- Datum Review
- Advanced Datum Reference Frame Concepts
- Boundaries
- Position Control Concepts
- Profile Control Concepts
- Coaxial Tolerances
- Introduction to Tolerance Stack-Ups
Students will be able to:
- Apply the geometric language to real parts
- Construct the appropriate functional datum reference frames for parts after analyzing the mating requirements
- Apply datum feature modifiers where appropriate based on analyzing the requirements
- Specify datum reference frames properly to represent the part's functional requirements, including the use and interpretation of datum shift where appropriate
- Apply geometric tolerancing to control features and ensure mating requirements are met
- Perform boundary calculations to analyze the combined effects of different types of variation
- Specify tolerances to ensure multiple mating part relationships between constrained features
- Perform tolerance stack-up analysis to assign critical tolerances
- Apply geometric controls and symbols properly to suit the functional requirements
Who Should Attend:
- Design engineers
- Manufacturing engineers
- Quality engineers
- CAD draftspersons
- Mechanical engineering technicians
- Anyone involved with drawing review and anyone looking for a deeper understanding of how to apply geometric tolerancing and perform tolerance analysis will greatly benefit from this course.
