Geometric Dimensioning and Tolerancing to ASME Y14.5 – Level 2
An intensive two-day course in Geometric Dimensioning & Tolerancing, which follows on from, and builds upon, the Level 1 course.
- Learn how to define more advanced datum structures.
- Find out how to use the Least Material Condition modifier.
- Discover how to use the Maximum Material Condition modifier with datum references (datum shift).
The course covers some of the more advanced concepts of Geometric
Dimensioning & Tolerancing and its application and interpretation. It is suitable for anyone who has completed the Level 1 course.
Duration
2 days (available for classroom or on-line delivery).
Who is it for?
Mechanical, design and production engineers.
Delegates are required to have completed the Level 1 course.
