Geometric Dimensioning and Tolerancing for Fasteners
February 19 & February 20 9:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m.IFI Headquarters, Independence OHINSTRUCTORLaurence Claus, IFI Director of Education and TrainingCourse Overview: One of the most misunderstood themes between fastener manufacturers and customers is the application of geometric dimensions and tolerances (GDT) on prints. Often, because customers do not understand the fastener manufacturing process, GDT is applied in a manner that is burdensome to suppliers. Likewise, because manufacturers often fail to appreciate customer needs for a particular feature to function in a certain way, GDT is viewed as burdensome and problematic. This two-day, interactive seminar was developed to educate and familiarize students with a basic understanding of GDT, specifically related to its use on threaded fasteners. We will explore how specific geometric characteristics are used to describe fit, form, and function on threaded fasteners.Curriculum IncludesThe session will include approximately ten segments which will help students become familiar with and build skill levels in basic GDT concepts. Each segment will have associated exercises and participants will work together in groups to complete. Some segments include - •Identifying datums•Understanding the meaning of GDT symbols•Reading the feature control frame•Bonus tolerance•Measuring GDT requirementsWho Should Attend?This class will be beneficial to many in the fastener industry, including - •Manufacturing and Process Engineers•Quality Engineers and Technicians•Manufacturing Leads•Quoting and Estimation Associates•Technical Sales•Anyone who would like to learn more about fastenersPRICING AND REGISTRATIONSpecial promo pricing for the New Year! $900 total ($450 per day) for non-members.
