Even with an understanding of the fundamentals of Geometric Dimensioning & Tolerancing (GD&T), many professionals still lack the confidence to expertly and deliberately apply geometric tolerancing to clearly define their product designs. Like with any language, this deeper understanding is built off the fundamentals.
The Advanced course helps students apply GD&T to achieve the mating and functional requirements of their parts. This course reinforces fundamentals and provides applications-based exercises where students apply what they have learned. Application practice exercises and calculations are performed individually and in teams. The use of functional dimensioning and tolerancing schemes and its effect on assemblies is emphasized throughout the course. Students will expand their understanding of the implications of their specifications on function, manufacturing, inspection, and quality. Students will gain experience and confidence selecting the product definition strategy for an assembly by working more advanced application examples with their peers under the guidance of an expert in a classroom setting.
This course is designed for anyone in engineering, manufacturing, and quality assurance who need to define engineering requirements with drawings, or properly interpret and act upon the information found in engineering drawings.
Through training, participants will learn the following:
Basic GD&T Review
Variation and tolerance, drawing requirements, variation in perspective, 3D & Standards for interpretation
Engineering product definition & downstream processes, bonus tolerance, rule #1, exceptions & overrides
Ambiguity, types of variation & tolerances, unrelated & related AMEs, unrelated & related MMEs
Datums and degrees of freedom
Establishing datum reference frames including datum feature precedence and datum modifiers
Secondary datum feature at MMB, tertiary datum feature at MMB, calculating allowable datum feature shift, and applications for datum feature modifiers
Advanced Datum Reference Frame Concepts
Moveable datum targets
Coaxial holes as a datum feature
Rotational control
Simultaneous requirements
Multiple datum reference frames
Customized datum reference frame
Applications and establishment of the correct functional datum reference frame
Profile Control Concepts
Review of profile including composite profile
Non-uniform profile
Dynamic profile
Versatility of profile
Profile verification applications & gage design
Accumulation of variation across profile tolerances
Position Control Concepts
Review of composite tolerancing and dual segment position tolerancing
Rectangular tolerance zone, spherical tolerance zone, conical tolerance zone, position boundary
Versatility of position
Position verification application exercises & gage design
Determining the correct position tolerance
Boundaries
Boundaries and their applications in design and tolerance analysis.
Determining Inner & outer boundaries for features with and without modifiers using various datum reference frames.
Comparison among circular runout, total runout, position, and profile for coaxial control.
Applications of various coaxial tolerances.
Accumulation of variation between coaxial features.
All the participants in your training were also very impressed with you and your training. They each mentioned to the management team how this was the best training they have received and how your energy and enthusiasm kept them excited and motivated. We really appreciate all you and the team have done for us. We will be in touch soon to review and discuss future trainings.
Paul was definitely very knowledgeable, shared much of his experiences and was very personable. He was able to take a topic that could be very dry and made it interesting. The overall thoughts were that both classes were valuable – especially to those with only several years in the industry.
Hi Barbara and Angelo,
Thank you for the Holiday cheers! We look forward to working with QSG in 2018. We’ve accomplished a lot together as partners and our Training Program has been a great success thanks to you and QSG. Autoliv’s employees are very grateful to QSG for the opportunities to learn new skills and Autoliv appreciates our employees using these new skills to continually improve our Organization.
Hi Angelo,
The training workshops have been very well received and we are very happy with all that have been completed. The upcoming 5S training is full and we already have others interested so we will be looking to add a class. I am also pushing for additional training with all the training events in all areas of our business.
Thanks for letting us know!
