About the Course
If you have a basic understanding of mechanical drawings, Alex can teach you the terms, rules, symbols, and concepts of GD&T as prescribed in the ASME Y14.5-2009 Standard.

You'll get an in-depth explanation of geometric symbols, including each symbol's requirements, tolerance zones, and limitations. The class includes a comparison of GD&T to coordinate tolerancing; an explanation of tolerance zones; Rules #1 and #2; form and orientation controls; tolerance of position; runout and profile controls. It is up to date with the new 2009 standard and explains all the new rules and symbols.

Throughout the class, you'll hone your newly acquired skills with practice problems. This complete course in GD&T fundamentals is the most thorough and comprehensive training on the market.

Who Should Attend
This workshop is a valuable tool for individuals who create or interpret engineering drawings: product and gage designers; process, product, and manufacturing engineers; supplier quality engineers; CMM operators; buyers/purchasers; checkers; inspectors; technicians; and sales engineers.

Workshop Highlights
The workshop is based on a series of goals and objectives. It includes numerous practice problems and in-depth coverage of dimensioning and tolerancing. You will learn the benefits of GD&T and leave with the ability to interpret GD&T on drawings.
