GD&T

  • system for setting communicatating tolerances

    • uses symbols and notatinos
  • Describes

    • nominal geometry of parts
    • Accapteble range in size, shap direcetion and position of each feature
    • How features can deviate in relation to each within acceptable limits
  • Standards

Nomenclature

  • Basic or nominal size:

    • the ttheoretical dimenitions of a feature

Clearance and interference fits

  • suppose we have a max hole diameter and a minimum hole diameter
  • and we have a maximum shaft diameter and a minimum shaft diameter
    • calculating the clearance
        1. maximum clearance= max hole diameter - min shaft diameter
        1. minimuma clearance = min hole diameter - max shaft diameter
  • Fit chart

    • Shaft hole

      • Shaft is lowercase
      • hole is uppercase
    • A-P

      • A is the most lose
      • P is the most tight
    • 6-9

      • 6 is most accurate
      • 9 is most rough

Feature control frame

  • Parts of the feature control frame

  • Geometric tolerancing symbols

    • omg too many :(
