Geometric Dimensioning & Tolerance (GD&T) – Gage Design by Thomas Finke

About the training

#GD & T Geometric Dimensioning & Tolerance (GD&T) – Gage Design

Seminar Content

This two-day course focuses on the GD&T gage development and application, including: gage principles, gage design, dimensioning and tolerancing, gage usage, fixture development, gage tolerancing policies. Gage is an important tool to inspect the GD&T requirements per ASME Y14.5M-1994 and ISO1101 GD&T standard. The structure and tolerancing principles of the gage will greatly affect the product quality level. The correct gage principle will reduce the measurement risk, including the conforming parts rejection and nonconforming parts acceptance.

Who Should Attend

This seminar is designed for Gage Engineers, Design Engineers, Quality Engineers, Process Engineers, Manufacturing Engineers, APQP Team Members, and Inspectors.

Recommended Training and/or Experience

Basic knowledge of mechanical blue print reading and experience in implementation and production processesis recommended.

Seminar Materials

Each participant will receive a seminar manual with case studies.
