Tolerance Analysis Methods

Example: Joining Parts
n Suppose you want to join the following two parts.
n They need to be properly aligned and dimensionally
acceptable to insure a good assembly.

What is GD&T?
n Symbolized notation system municate
tolerances through the use of datums (references).
n GD&T is used whenever the location of a part is as
critical or more critical than its size. It insures that
two parts can mate or join properly.
n Thus, GD&municates 2 key issues:
n Datum Reference System (how part is held).
n Tolerances for Part Characteristics.

Datums
n Datums define the reference system for a part
to measure or assemble it.
n reference systems may be absolute (XYZ) or relative (XY).
n Use pins ~ part holes or slots & clamps ~ part surfaces

GD&T Drawing Example
n Dimension may deviate up to 1mm any direction draw
circle with a radius = 1 (profile = 2 -> tol.+/- 1)
