GD&T - Functional Gage Design

GD&T - Functional Gage Design

By learning the proper application of functional gaging and inspection techniques you will increase your production of quality parts. When you understand how to design and build your functional gaging and inspection processes along with the part design, you will be developing inspection criteria directly related to the part’s specific application. This means that when your parts are inspected, you can be sure that they will work.

Learn About:

  • Gage design principles/tolerances and allowances
  • Ways to avoid commonly used by improper gaging and inspection techniques
  • Inspection machines
  • Substitute systems
  • Surface plane inspection and much more

Eliminate arbitrary inspection practices. Inspection processes are often developed after the fact, and the parts are then judged by criteria loosely related to the part's specific function. Thus, parts are passed that shouldn't be, and others are rejected that would work. Discussions at the workshop will cover all inspection techniques currently available and show you when to use them.
