A one day course focused on the interpretation and application of Manufacturing Engineering technical product specification, this covers both dimensional and geometrical tolerances (GD&T) and their application.
Course detail
The course is designed to introduce the candidate to tolerances and good practice, covering drawing layout, basic tolerancing, the full suite of GD&T symbols, datum requirements and mainstream modifiers.
On completion, the candidate will be able to interpret and apply geometrical dimensional tolerances to a component drawing or CAD model.
Learning outcomes include
- Knowledge of how tolerances are specified and good practice interpretation of both general and geometrical tolerances to national and international standards
- Understanding technical product specification, including layout and the full suite of GD&T symbols and common modifiers
- Application of datum requirements including the constraint and understanding of the six degrees of freedom.
Delivery method
- Lectures - Presentations with group interaction and activities.
- Activity sessions - Hands-on user experience of a variety of measuring equipment and metrology tools.
- Discussions - Lecturer led sessions and group discussions.
