"Advanced Applications of GD&T - Based on Your Parts" - Course Outline
Recommended Prerequisite Courses:
- Geometree XYZ LLC Drawing Practices
- Geometree XYZ LLC GD&T From A to Z with the Geometree
- Geometree XYZ LLC GD&T Applications and Tolerance Stack Analysis
- Geometree XYZ LLC Measurement Data Reporting per ASME Y14.45
Learning Objectives:
All participants will join in a discussion to determine:
- The functional requirements for each part, and for the important features on each part.
- Which features should be datum features.
- Whether the part must be restrained for measurement, and how to best apply and specify that restraint.
- The tolerances that should be applied to the datum features.
- The tolerances that should be applied to the more important features.
- Any additional considerations, such as inspection methods and data reporting needs, to provide the needed information for product design, part procurement, and product assembly considerations.
