GD&T



Geometric Dimensioning and Tolerance (GD&T)

The course is an overview of the GD&T concepts in controls necessary for proper layout and applications. The course will cover typical issues that can occur when applying a traditional coordinate system and how Geometric Tolerance can overcome them. The course will introduce the symbols, terminology and the rules for GD&T based on (ASME Y14.5M-1994).



Length:  1 day     CEUs:  .7       Prerequisites:  None

Learning Objectives

  • Apply the principles of GD&T to a layout process
  • Demonstrate an understanding of Dimensioning Tolerance principles
  • Reduce the number of errors by developing a system of effective dimensional tolerancing
  • Use the following Controls:
    • Form
    • Orientation
    • Location
    • Runout
    • Profile

Plexus Learning Model

Learning is maximized through participation. That is why Plexus training avoids lecture-based teaching and focuses on group activities, case studies and hands-on applications. Learn by doing.

Instructors

Plexus Master Trainers. Plexus Master Trainers train and evaluate:

  • ISO 9001:2008, ISO/TS 16949:2009, AS9100, ISO 14001:2004 Environmental Management Systems, FSSC 22000:2005 Food Safety, ISO 9001:2008 for Healthcare and ISO 13485:2003 for Medical Devices.
