GDT PROBLEMS

Are all of these auto parts made in the same factory by the same company?

What is the purpose of GDT?

It is used on mating parts in order to assure that they are ‘interchangeable’.

Where did GDT come from?

THE AMERICAN SOCIETY OF MECHANICAL ENGINEERS (ASME) CREATED A GLOBAL STANDARD TITLED ASME Y14.5-2009 FOR DIMENSIONING AND TOLERANCING.

Problem 2 Solution

FORM TOLERANCES

ObjectivesIdentify form tolerance symbols, explain their purpose, and apply them to a drawing.

• Straightness

• Flatness

• Cylindricity

• Circularity

What are Form Tolerances?

• Form Tolerances are applied to single features and, therefore, are not related to a datum.

• They specify a zone in which the dimensioned feature must be controlled.

STRAIGHTNESS

Straightness a Form Tolerance

A condition where an element of a surface or an axis is in a straight line.

HOLE DIA.

By requiring a .04 tolerance zone allowance is made for the imperfection of the rod while stating an acceptable range for it use in the assembly.

What does this mean?

FLATNESS

A condition of a surface where all of the elements are in one plane.

Flatness a Form Tolerance

The problem is….

….can any surface be made perfectly flat?

So the designer must establish a range or zone of allowable variation. The form tolerance ‘Flatness’ is used to control the amount of variation on a flat surface.

Unlike straightness which controls the form of an object… flatness is used to control only a surface.

CIRCULARITY

Circularity a Form Tolerance

What kind of ride would you get if the wheels on you car were ‘out-of-round’?

Is it possible to make a wheel that is perfectly round?

How do you control the amount of allowable variation?

Circularity is established by two concentric circles created by a cross-section thru a rod or the center of a sphere.

Circularity a Form Tolerance

The problem is….

0.25

CYLINDRICITY

Cylindricity a Form Tolerance

The problem is….

0.25

Cylindricity is established by two concentric cylinders within which the entire surface of the cylinder must lie.

OUT OF TOLERANCE

Cylindricity a Form Tolerance

ORIENTATION TOLERANCES

ObjectivesIdentify orientation tolerance symbols, explain their purpose, and apply them to a drawing.

Parallelism

Perpendicularity

Angularity

What are Orientation Tolerances?

• Orientation Tolerances control the relationship of features to one another. One or more datum features shall be referenced.

• These Orientation Tolerances are total, meaning that all elements of a related surface or axis fall within the specified tolerance zone.

Parallelism an Orientation Tolerance

Parallelism is a condition of a surface or center plane equidistant from a datum plane or axis.

Parallelism an Orientation Tolerance

ANOTICE THAT A DATUM IS REFERENCED

Perpendicularity is a condition of a surface, center or axis at a right angle (90 degrees) to a datum plane or axis.

LOCATION TOLERANCES

ObjectivesIdentify location tolerance symbols, explain their purpose, and apply them to a drawing.

Position

Concentricity

Symmetry

What are Location Tolerances?

• Location tolerances are used for the purpose of locating features from datums.

• They are also used for establishing coaxiality or symmetry.

Positional Tolerance is used to define a zone in which the center, axis, or center plane of a feature is permitted to vary.

THINK OF THE ARROW AS THE CENTER OR AXIS OF THE DRILL.

CONSIDER THE BULLSEYE ON THE TARGET AS THE ACCEPTABLE TOLERANCE ZONE.

ANY HIT WITHIN THAT ZONE IS CONSIDERED TO BE A BULLSEYE.

Positional a Location Tolerance

TRUE POSITION AXIS

WHAT IS THE MEANING OF THE FEATURE CONTROL FRAME SHOWN BELOW?

IT MEANS = THE IDENTIFIED HOLE IS TO BE POSITIONED WITHIN A 0.5 DIAMETER OF ITS TRUE (EXACT) POSITION, AT ITS MAXIMUM MATERIAL CONDITION. THE HOLE WILL BE PERPENDICULAR TO DATUM-A, AND LOCATED FROM DATUM-B AND DATUM-C.

Positional Tolerance Application

A

B C

Concentricity Tolerance is used to establish a relationship between the axes of two or more cylindrical features of an object.When two or more cylindrical features share the same axis, they are said to be coaxial.

Concentricity a Location Tolerance

Symmetry Tolerance is a center plane relationship of the features of an object establishing a median point to center plane control.
