Understand ISO Geometrical Tolerancing
Understanding dimensioning and tolerancing on engineering drawings is critical to being able to make parts that satisfy their functional requirements. This three-day ISO workshop will help you to understand engineering drawings that use the International Standards Organization (ISO) standards.

The course was written with three goals in mind:
1. To help you recognize what is required on a good (standard-compliant) drawing
2. To help you understand geometrical tolerances based on the ISO standards
3. To combine and explain information from dozens of ISO standards into a logical understandable topic

You’ll learn about ...

  • ISO drawing conventions
  • GPS basics
  • Limits and fits
  • The datum system
  • Form controls
  • Orientation controls
  • Location controls
  • Run-out and profile controls
  • General tolerances
  • Workpiece edges
  • Surface texture
  • How ISO compares to ASME

Course Developer: Alex Krulikowski, participant in ISO standards development

Our ISO Geometrical Tolerancing course was developed by an expert on the subject: ETI president, Alex Krulikowski is an expert on geometric tolerancing based on ASME standards, and is intimately familiar with the ISO standards used to define geometrical tolerancing on drawings.

Professionals across the globe turn to Alex Krulikowski and ETI for training in geometric dimensioning and tolerancing. As president of Effective Training Inc., Alex has helped tens of thousands of students learn GD&T through his textbooks, self-study courses, computer-based training, and online learning center. Now you have the opportunity to learn GD&T from Alex or one of his personally trained instructors at an ETI public workshop.

About the Course
Enable global sourcing for your company and learn to read drawings created in other countries. The ISO Geometrical Tolerancing workshop will teach you the ins and outs of utilizing the ISO standards. The 3-day course will give you a fundamental knowledge of ISO 1101:2004 and related standards and their application on drawings.

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 ISO geometrical tolerancing course will help you to understand engineering drawings that use the International Standards Organization (ISO) standards. The course includes Alex Krulikowski's ISO Geometrical Tolerancing Reference Guide, a unique reference guide that will help you to learn about dimensioning and tolerancing and provide a handy reference for you on the job.

Skill Level Needed
Students should have completed ETI's Engineering Drawing Requirements course. 

Each workshop participant receives:

  • Alex Krulikowski's ISO Geometrical Tolerancing Reference Guide
  • An ISO Geometrical Tolerancing Workbook
  • Class handouts
  • An official certificate of completion

Format: Utilizes a series of goals and objectives to teach the use of ISO standards on engineering drawings in a 3-day course. Topics covered include:

Key geometrical tolerancing concepts: maximum, least, and reciprocity requirement; virtual condition; bonus tolerance

Limits and Fits
The ISO 286 system of limits and fits

The Datum System
The datum system (planar datums)
Datum target specifications
Datum specifications

Form Controls
Flatness
Straightness
Roundness
Cylindricity

Orientation Controls

Profile any surface tolerance
Profile any line tolerance

General Tolerances
ISO system for general tolerances for linear and angular dimensions
ISO system for general tolerances for geometrical tolerances (ISO 2768-2)

Workpiece Edges
Interpret workpiece edge specifications

Surface Texture and Surface Imperfections
Surface texture and surface imperfection requirements

ISO/ASME Comparison
Major differences between the tolerancing standards

Final Exam
Closing comments

Students who attend our workshops walk away with more than knowledge. They gain on-the-job skills because our materials are performance-based, and each workshop approaches the subject from a design perspective.
