Introduction
Drawing quality is an important issue for manufacturing
Flawed drawings can cause mistakes in the product.
Poor drawings can easily double manufacturing costs and delivery time.
Most manufacturing and quality engineers agree that
50% of the drawing they see are flawed and
Require 5 to 10 engineering changes before they define amanufacturable part.
Common problems include:
Undefined reference frames.
Inadequate or overly restrictive tolerances.
Frequently, manufacturing makes assumptions about the intent of the design
engineer and problems ensue.

GD&T
Introduction
Creating unambiguous part drawings is a demanding thought
process.
Function of part and process to manufacture and inspect it must be
thoroughly understood and communicated.
Example,
Design engineer intends for the part to be inspected with side Apresented to the gage first, with side B as a secondary point of contact,
Inspector puts Side B to the gage first, and A as secondary point.
Results:
Good parts are scrapped since the are measured as out of spec, but
they might be OK.
Bad parts are shipped off since they pass the inspection.

GD&T Introduction
Creating detailed GD&T drawings take more time and are more
expensive to make than coordinate dimension drawings. Coordinate dimensional drawings are faster to draw and less expensive,
But have more errors on it and can cause manufacturing problems.
Example,
Designer 1 creates drawings with coordinate drawing standards (tolerancesare +/-)
Time is 20 hours for part A.
Cost is $50/hr x 20 hours = $1000.
Designer 2 creates drawing with ASME Y14.5M (GD&T Standards)
Time is 30 hours for part A.
Cost is %50/hr x 30 hours = $1500.
Revisions to correct design problems.
Paperwork cost range for $500 to $2000 per change.
If 5 to 10 changes are needed to correct designer 1 then costs ofchanges are between $2500 and $20,000.

GD&T vs. Coordinate Measuring What is a quality drawing?
Compare two drawing styles
Figure 1. GD&T example.
Figure 2. Coordinate dimensioning example of same part.
Part straightness
Both drawings specify a part thickness of 0.25 inches +-0.010.
How straight must the part be?
Fig 1 has GD&T straightness symbol applied to thickness (Area A)
Symbol on part means that the part must be straight enough to pass
between two parallel plates spaced 0.260
Fig 2 has coordinate version says nothing about straightness.
Part could be within thickness tolerance, yet significantly bowed .
Note needs to be added to drawing to require straightness.

GD&T vs. Coordinate Measuring What is a quality drawing (continued)
Unwanted tolerance accumulation
Fig 1 includes several dimensions (B) called basic dimensions which identify exactlocations from which tolerances are specified.
Fig 2 has no corresponding term and tolerances can accumulate.
Another note needs to be added Dimensions are gage dimensions.
Part inspection Figure 3.
Different inspection points and procedures can lead to different measurements.
GD&T establishes an order of measurement sequence. Coordinate measuring does not.
Two inspectors can get totally different results from same part.
GD&T system
Specifies measurement sequence.
Parts intended to contact gage are datums. (C Fig 1) Geometric tolerance controlling hole locations defines the sequence in which
part surfaces must touch the gage surfaces. (D)
Reading from left side of positional tolerance callout, the letter sequencelists the order in which the part touches the gage. A, B, C
Coordinate measuring system has no equivalent system and as such requires a note.

GD&T vs. Coordinate Measuring What is a quality drawing (continued)
Hole location
GD&T system (D) contains a symbol (circle with slant in it) that denotes the
shape of the tolerance zone as a diameter.
Same geometric tolerance includes a circled M symbol (Maximum
material condition) that permits the location tolerance to increase for
larger holes.
Coordinate measuring system show two ways in which is inadequate:
Uses square tolerance zones, Fig 4, which allow more tolerance for hole
centers diagonally than vertically or horizontally. Round tolerance zone
is better.
Requires tolerance zone for hole location to remain fixed in size,regardless of hole size.
Small holes have same tolerance zones as larger diameters.
Notes have to be added for round tolerance.

Coordinate version only specifies bore diameter and depth, allowing user to
choose between Following smaller diameter location, or
Locating by tolerance dimension for both diameters.
Note must be added to ensure proper location.

GD&T History In ancient Egypt,
Cubit: unit of measure based on length of the Pharaohs forearm.
Span: the distance form the tip of the thumb to the tip of the littlefinger,
Standard meter 1789: One- ten millionths of the distance from North Pole to the equator
measured through Paris France.
1906: U.S. Prototype Meternumber 27-as a value of 1,553,164.13 timesthe wavelength of cadmium red in air, at 760 mm of atmospheric pressure at15 C.
The continual change in the definition of the measurement is to increase theaccuracy of the meters length.
The current definition of the meter is the length of the path traveled bylight in vacuum during a time interval of 1/299,792,458 of a second.
The standardizing of dimensioning and tolerancing has paralleledthe development of a more accurate unit of measure

GD&T Standards ANSI Y14.5
The ANSI standard was revised in 1982.
In 1994, the standard was moved form ANSI to the American Society ofMechanical Engineers (ASME) and the name changed to ASME Y14.5.
The standard was also revised into its current form of ASME Y14.5-1994.
Geometric Dimensioning and Tolerancing (GD&T) Establishes the standard by which designers can communicate
the intended function of the part to the machinist making the part and the inspector checking the part.
This standard lets the designer inform the machinist, toolmaker or fabricatorwhat are the important features of the design when they are making the part.
The standard also lets the inspector know what are the important features toinspect form.
GD&T uses symbols to communicate the information to those involved inmaking the part to eliminate any misunderstanding.
Word explanations can be confusing especially with the global market and thetranslations of words into different languages.
A simple layout of the symbols used in GD&T can be found in below.

GD&TMater ial Condition Modif iers Material Condition Modifiers
Indicate at what material condition the tolerance is applicable.
There are three different types of material condition modifiers
Regardless of Feature Size (RFS)
Used if the tolerance is to be met at all possible sizes of the feature
to be produced.
In the current standard, this is assumed if one of the other modifiers
is not specified. In the older standards, the symbol was placed in
the feature control frame to designate the RFS condition.

GD&TForm Tolerances Form tolerances
The control the variations of individual features of a part.
Such features include straightness, flatness, circularity and Cylindricity. Form tolerances do not control the relationship between features.
Straightness
The straightness tolerance controls all the elements along a
theoretical straight line on a surface or axis. The tolerance given for straightness specifics how close toperfectly straight the feature must be created.
Depending on the way straightness is defined on the drawing, determines
whether surface elements or an axis is to be controlled.
The symbol for straightness is

GD&TFlatness Flatness
A perfectly flat surface must contain all elements in one plane.
The flatness tolerance establishes a set of parallel planes that mustcontain all elements of the surface.
The flatness tolerance is not used in conjunction with a material
modifier or datum reference it is a stand-alone tolerance.
The symbol for flatness is . Example, gives the different representations of how flatness tolerance is

GD&TCircularity Circularity
Controls the roundness of any feature with circular cross section.
The circular cross-section must be taken perpendicular to the axis of thecylinder or cone, or through a common center of a sphere.
Circularity tolerance is also referred to as the roundness tolerance.
The symbol for Circularity is c. The tolerance zone for a circularity tolerance is bounded by two concentric
circles.
The tolerance value is determined by the radial distance between the circles,
not the distance between the diameters.
Example gives a typical call-out for circularity tolerance.

GD&TCylindricity Cylindricity
Controls the surface of a cylinder.
This tolerance can be applied to a shaft or a hole. Cylindricity is identified by a radial tolerance zone that establishes
two perfectly concentric cylinders.
The surface of the cylinder that the tolerance is applied to must lie
within this tolerance zone.
The cylindricity tolerance also controls the parallelism of the sides
of the cylinder to prevent the part form being tapered.
Example gives a typical call-out for cylindricity tolerance.

GD&TDatums Datums
Theoretically perfect planes, surfaces, points, lines or axes that are
derived form a datum feature. Datums are used by designers to specify important features of reference bywhich toolmakers and machinists create the part and inspectors check the
part to the print.
Datum featuresare actual features of the part, such as a surface, that
establish the datum.
The feature control frames that define tolerances based on datum features
include datum references.
Datums are used to establish an inspection point from a surface.
Checking jigs and fixtures are built based upon datums to inspect
parts.

GD&TPositional Tolerances Position tolerances
Locate features from datums or for establishing coaxiality or symmetry.
Positional tolerances define A zone where the center, axis or center plane of a feature of size is permitted to
vary form true position.
The true position is the theoretically exact position of the feature.
Basic dimensions are used to establish the location of the feature in
relationship to datum features. When using positional tolerances MMC and LMC must be specified in the
feature control frame after the tolerance otherwise RFS is assumed. Positional tolerances are also applied only to features of size; they are not applied to
features of form.
The format for the positional feature control frame is given below.
