Most programs and books on GD&T are considered dry and monotonous. The GD&T Hierarchy Coach

is not that! Tec-Ease, Inc. has purposefully avoided this pitfall in its’ Coach development to help

students learn GD&T concepts the first time. It mirrors the same helpful instruction techniques used in

Don’s books, GD&T e-Mail Tips and live presentations and addresses multiple learning styles. It’s been

designed to assist students in understanding GD&T concepts while increasing information retention

through proven application and inspection examples, full color 3-D graphics, fun animations and

quizzes (and a little pointed humor!).

Completion Times for each Chapter:

For purchasers of the program, a Web-based final exam is available free-of-charge. Upon achieving a

“passing” score, Tec-Ease, Inc. will issue its standard, Certificate of Course Completion for

Fundamentals of GD&T. Each single user license or log-in receives a copy of the GD&T Hierarchy

Collection (textbook, workbook with solutions and a pocket guide). Tec-Ease, Inc. courses earn

Registered Continuing Education Credits (RCEP).

What are people saying about The GD&T Hierarchy Coach?

Gwen says, "I absolutely love this course…I can go as slow as I want and go back and review

slides if I need to…. This is the way to go. I don’t interrupt others learning, yet I get to fully

understand before I move on.“

As GD&T is totally new for some of our students, a few are struggling to keep pace with the broad

range of concepts presented in the GD&T Hierarchy Coach. However, the consensus is that it is a very

enjoyable and effective distance learning series.

I’ve learned more in just a few hours with the Tec-Ease GD&T Hierarchy Coach than in 12 weeks

taking a similar on-line program. I look forward to the time I get to spend viewing the presentations and

taking the interactive quizzes. Here at FOX the Tec-Ease GD&T Hierarchy Coach is rated “best in

class”.

Thanks!

GD&T Hierarchy Textbook - 1994 Benefit from 30 years of continuous improvement.

Geometric dimensioning and tolerancing is not new, but

there is a newness about it. Over the last 30 years, Don

Day has continuously worked to develop this 160 page

seminar text. The result is a tool that facilitates and

maximizes learning. The entire text is in landscape

format which made it possible to include more complex

drawings than are usually found in most GD&T texts.

Many of the illustrations are solid models of actual parts

including some from Don's own product, the Inter-Mec Air

Clutch Brake.

The GD&T Hierarchy is used throughout the book to illustrate relationships between the 14

geometric tolerances. Don walks you through a brief history of engineering drawings. He goes on to

prove how it is not possible to utilize the latest developments in solid modeling, computer aided

manufacturing and automated inspection without GD&T. The most usable geometric tolerances are

featured with numerous application examples.


GD&T Hierarchy Workbook - 1994

This supplement to Don Day's, The GD&T Hierarchy textbook

(ASME Y14.5M-1994), contains over 150 additional exercises

covering all topics presented in the textbook. Sample

certification type questions included.

Pivot Block Model Kit

This model is used to distinguish between the surface

interpretation and the axis or center plane interpretation

of a position tolerance. It is also used to reinforce how

gage sizes are calculated.

This part and fixture are used to help explain how

datum targets are used on a casting or forging to

fixture the part while creating functional machined

datum features.

Casting Model Kit

Simultaneous Requirements Kit

By pulling the shaft apart you may illustrate how the pair

of flats is centered on the datum axis and the key seat is

centered on the datum axis. With the shaft assembled

you can change the orientation of the flats to the key

seat. This is useful to explain that there are times when

a relationship between these features is necessary and

other times where it is not that critical and the rule of

simultaneous requirements may be relaxed.

Offerings

Who should attend:

All those who use GD&T to design, produce and inspect parts: mechanical engineers, designers,

managers, production planners, inspectors, machinists, supplier quality personnel, etc.

The Need:

A concurrent engineering team equipped with the proper tools has the ability to shorten time to

market, reduce engineering changes and create a robust quality design. Design decisions should be

optimized for quality cost and delivery at the sketch phase when an engineering change costs a few

cents rather than hundreds or thousands of dollars months later. The drawing is the common thread

of the concurrent engineering team.

This is the first in a series of seminars that presents understandable user friendly tools that may be

used by your entire team to get it right the first time. By using these methods, design decisions are

based on fact rather than emotion and past practices

Course description: 3 Day Course

You'll discover the major pitfalls of traditional coordinate tolerancing - and how they may be overcome

by using Geometric Tolerancing. Then, starting with your basic blueprint knowledge, you'll learn the

symbols, terminology and rules of Geometric Tolerancing as prescribed in the current standard

(ASME Y14.5M-2009). The GD&T Hierarchy will be presented to explain the relationship between

tolerances and how to most economically apply the concepts.

Learning Objectives

Translate geometric callouts into plain English with one meaning.

Explain the major default rules found in ASME Y14.5-2009.

Explain the tolerance zones for the 14 geometric characteristics.

Understand the hierarchy of geometric tolerancing.

Recognize proper application of GD&T.

• Resolve differences or discrepancies found in the current standard

• Incorporate concepts from other Y14 standards

The major revisions of the Standard are driven by the needs of industry. A drawing today is defined in

the Y14.100 standard as "an engineering document or digital data file(s)". Designs and individual

parts are more complex today. In addition, the need for higher quality and improved productivity

demand that we get it right the first time. Because Tec-Ease, Inc. has been involved with this revision

every step of the way, we can provide the reasons for these changes. The application of the new

concepts will be shown on a variety of parts from castings and molded parts to sheet metal and other

fabricated parts. As in the past, the graphics for this webinar will be in full color and 3-D to make

understanding the revisions that much easier. We have also included many animations and exercises

to test your understanding of the concepts.

Design For Assembly (DFA) Training

16 Hours: The design of a part is the first step in its manufacture and it is then that the cost of manufacturing is committed. To remain competitive as a world class manufacturer, the design of a product must incorporate assembly methods, materials, tooling and the capabilities of the site(s) of manufacture at the conceptual phase. DFA is a tool for evaluating product designs to improve quality, cost and delivery at the earliest phase of design. It will primarily drive to reduce part count within and around the assembly and/or combine parts. DFA stresses the use of simple designs, modular assemblies, multi-functional parts, self-locating features, parts standardization and elimination of adjustments.

4 Hours: This four-hour overview will show the quality, cost and delivery benefits of making

Geometric Dimensioning and Tolerancing an integral part of the Product

Development/Delivery Process. GD&T is not new, but there is a newness about it.

Recent developments in CAD and CMM technology, ISO Standards and Statistical

Process Control have brought GD&T once again to the forefront of manufacturing.

Participants will see that GD&T is a common language that may be used to improve

communication between design, quality, manufacturing, suppliers and customers.

When used properly, GD&T will get the right questions asked early in the program,

simplify the engineering drawing, and directly relate customer requirements to product

specifications and process control. Through down-to-earth examples, humor and

uncommon sense, an overview of this powerful tool will be presented.

Course Outline: GD&T definition GD&T’s role in concurrent Manufacturing How GD&T fits current and future technology GD&T and the ISO Standards GD&T used to: Relate Design, Manufacturing and Quality Define Cp and Cpk Reduce: Scrap Rework Engineering Changes “Use as is” decisions Cycle time Time to market Robust Designs The Role of GD&T in Six Sigma Design Examples Summary

Process Capable Tolerancing® (PCT) Training

1 Day: Who should attend: Designers, Design Engineers and those involved with supplier selection. The Need: Just look at any engineering product design drawing revision column and it will become clear that most designs are not right the first time. Inevitably the main problems result from poor tolerance capability. Designers and design engineers need a fast simple way to determine if the tolerances they assign are producible. When picking and working with suppliers there is a need to have a benchmark of process capability to assure the vendor is best in class. This seminar along with the Tolerance Capability Software meets these needs. Course Description: The statistical concepts behind the process capability index Cpk and its importance to the engineers and designers will be explained in layman's terms. After presenting an introduction to tolerance stack up using the vector method, the Process Capable Tolerancing™ (PCT) methodology for creating components and products that are robust to process variation is presented. The Tolerance Capability Expert™ (TCE) software which facilitates the application of this methodology is demonstrated. The methodology is illustrated through industrial case studies. . Course Content: Sigma, Cp, Cpk and probability are explained in a clear and practical manner Designing for Six Sigma Process capability study: High Volume Low volume to volumes of one Benefits of predicting Cpk early in the design phase: Product performance Latent defects Early life failures Defects vs. variation Introduction to tolerance stack up: Vector loops Robust design and design for manufacturing Process Capable Tolerancing: The method TCE Software Material properties risk Geometric properties risk
