GD&T: 3 Factors that Affect Understanding

Geometric dimensioning and tolerancing is a complicated and complex standard that can lead to reading and interpreting errors. On drawings, GD&T is used as a point of reference in order to easily and effectively manufacture products that meet the fit, form, and function requirements of the part. The above image

Beyond Symbols: Fluency in GD&T Decreases Cost

Due to the complex nature of the geometric dimensioning and tolerancing (GD&T) standard, a company’s bottom line profitability can be affected as a result of reading and interpreting errors. Users who have a lack of knowledge concerning the rules, symbols, conventions, and associated terminology of GD&T are more likely to make incorrect decisions.

6 Mistakes to avoid in Geometric Dimensioning and Tolerancing

Every manufacturing company that uses drawings to develop a manufacturing plan and estimate the production time might calculate product costs incorrectly if there are errors in those drawings. Such errors may also extend the product cycle time by causing manufacturing to tool up with incorrect equipment. Other engineers may have to guess at the designer’s intent, leading

Fastener courses to hold the industry together

Whether it’s a whole machine, a simple component, or a complete vehicle, fasteners are essential to the construction of these objects. The absence of fasteners in design and construction may lead to adverse consequences. Besides possible safety implications, fastener failure can represent a significant proportion of a product’s warranty costs. Understanding
