Time: 8:00 a.m. - 4:30 p.m. |
Objectives:
- Review the basic concepts and introduce the more complex concepts of the Y14.5 standard
- Provide participants with the knowledge of proper Datum Feature selection and specification
- Enable participants to properly interpret and apply each of the Y14.5 controls and rules
- Enable participants to calculate functional tolerances for position and other tolerances
- Continue preparing the participants for the ASME GDTP certification exams
Reasons for attending:
Your drawings have GD&T on them! If you have been through the GD&T - Fundamentals and you need more knowledge and skill to increase your effectiveness, this course is for you. This program is a continuation of your education in the Y14.5 standard. In this program, we focus on the application and interpretation of GD&T - another step closer to becoming a GD&T expert.
