What is GD & T?
• GD&T is a Universal Language for communicating engineering design specifications
• Includes all symbols, definitions, mathematical formulae and application rules necessary to convey specifications
• Conveys nominal dimensions and tolerances for a part• Independent of Country and native language• Approved by ASME, ANSI and DoD• Language that designers use to translate design
requirements into measurable specifications

Why use GD & T?
• It is important for the designer, manufacturer and inspector to understand part dimensions in the same manner
• GD & T principles result in time and cost savings• Ensures adherence to quality criteria• Reduces part rejection, mis-interpretation of drawings,
reworking, inter-departmental crossfire and art-to-part transformation time
• Avoids assembly mis-match, failures and quality problems

How does GD&T Work?
Four simple steps:• Identify part surfaces to serve as origins and provide
specific rules to establish starting point and direction for measurements
• Convey nominal (ideal) dimensions and orientations from origins to other surfaces
• Establish boundaries and / or tolerance zones for specific attributes of each surface along with specific rules for conformance
• Allow dynamic interaction between tolerances (simulating actual assembly possibilities) where appropriate to maximize tolerances
![Page 14: EGSIndia - SolidWorks Sales & Technical · PDF fileWhat is GD&T? • Way of communicating dimensional ... systems solution to the COPQ ... variation management or dimensional engineering](https://reader031.vdocuments.net/reader031/viewer/2022021819/5abcff7b7f8b9a24028e7c6c/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)

Features of Size - Four Fundamental Levels of Control
Level 1:Controls size and circularity (for cylinders and spheres) at each cross section only
Level 2:Adds overall form control
Level 3:Adds Orientation control
Level 4:Adds location control
Each higher-level tolerance adds a degree of constraint demanded by feature’s functional requirement
All lower-level controls remain in effect
Single feature can be subject to many tolerances simultaneously

What is a Tolerance Stack ?
A method of mathematically predicting the resultant effect of piece part and subassembly tolerances along with assembly process and fixturing variation on a particular build objective of the assembly.
![Page 43: EGSIndia - SolidWorks Sales & Technical · PDF fileWhat is GD&T? • Way of communicating dimensional ... systems solution to the COPQ ... variation management or dimensional engineering](https://reader031.vdocuments.net/reader031/viewer/2022021819/5abcff7b7f8b9a24028e7c6c/html5/thumbnails/43.jpg)
What is Tolerance Stack-up Analysis?
Worst-case analysis– Assumes dimensions vary within the entire range of their tolerance
zones and that the accumulation of tolerances will experience all possible variations
Gmin = L1 + L2 + L3 + L4… + Ln
= L1 + L2 + L3 + L4
= 152.75 + (-60.75) + (-42) + (-50.5) = -0.5 Interference
Performing worst-case analysis using a tolerance graph and hand calculation to determine the smallest permissible gap (G)

What is Tolerance Stack-up Analysis?
Worst-case tolerance analysis is dependent on how parts are actually assembled in real life
It is incorrect to think max worst case is when the parts are at their largest and min worst case is when they are at their smallest

● Also referred to as dimensional control, dimensional variation management or dimensional engineering
● A process by which the design, fabrication, and inspection of a product are systematically defined and monitored to meet predetermined dimensional quality goals.
● An engineering process that is combined with a set of tools that make it possible to understand and design for variation.
● Aim is to improve first-time quality, performance, service life, and associated costs.

Tolerance Loops (Vector Loops)
• A systematic method of approaching a tolerance stack, and selecting the contributing tolerances.
• A tolerance loop allows for the evaluation of not only the stack variation, but also the stack nominal value.

Worst Case Analysis
Worst case stacks simply sum all the tolerances in the assembly in a linear direction and predicts the maximum variation expected for a particular build objective.
![Page 68: EGSIndia - SolidWorks Sales & Technical · PDF fileWhat is GD&T? • Way of communicating dimensional ... systems solution to the COPQ ... variation management or dimensional engineering](https://reader031.vdocuments.net/reader031/viewer/2022021819/5abcff7b7f8b9a24028e7c6c/html5/thumbnails/68.jpg)
Worst Case Analysis Formula
Build Objective Variation = T1 + T2 + T3 + T4 +…..+ Tn
- Ti are the tolerance contributorsaffecting a particular build objective
- Ti are assumed equal bilateral tolerances - n is the number tolerances in the stack
