GD&T?
Datums in GD&T
All GD&T symbols except for the form tolerances (straightness, flatness, circularity
and cylindricity) can use datums to help specify what geometrical control is
needed on the part.
Relative to Datum: No
Relative to Datum: No
Gauging / Measurement:
Flatness is can be measured using a height gauge run across the surface of
the part if only the reference feature is held parallel. You are trying making
sure that any point along the surface does not go above or below the
tolerance zone. Modern CMM’s are best for measuring the part as they can
create virtual planes that the true surface profile can be compared to. This
is a 3D measurement so points must be measured across the length and
width of the part to ensure the entire surface is in tolerance.Flatness cannot
be measured by simply placing the part on a granite slab and
running height gauge over it. This would be measuring parallelism instead
as you are fixing the bottom of the part as a datum.

Profile of a line describes a tolerance zone around any line in any feature,
usually of a curved shape.
surface, making sure that every point falls in the tolerance zone, not just at
a cross section.
Commonly, casted parts call out surface profile when the surface is curved
to control the amount of variation

Gauging / Measurement:
Note: Perpendicularity does not control the angle of the referenced feature
–the tolerance is in distance units. (mm/in)

Relative to Datum:Yes
Position is one of the most useful and most complex of all the symbols in
GD&T.
The Position tolerance is the GD&T symbol and tolerance of location. The
True Position is the exact coordinate, or location defined by basic
dimensions or other means that represents the nominal value. In other
words, the GD&T “Position” Tolerance is how far your features location
can vary from its “True Position”.
Position is defined as the total permissible variation that a feature can have
from its “true” position.
Gauging of an Internal Feature
Location of Hole
aking the same example, the true position can also be specified with a
maximum material condition callout. This means you are now controlling
the envelope of the entire hole feature, including the size of the hole
throughout its entire depth.
Symmetry is not a very common GD&T callout since it has very limited
functional uses (centering location is done with Position) and the
verification and measurement of symmetry can be difficult
Runout is how much one given reference feature or features vary with
respect to another datum when the part is rotated 360° around the datum
axis.
It is essentially how much “wobble” occurs in the one part feature when
referenced to another.
4 DIAMENSIONS INFOTECH 22
Gauging / Measurement:
Runout and its 3D component, Total runout, are very common symbols in
GD&T due to the control
they have on a rotating part. They are used in any rotating components
such as drills, gears, shafts, axles and many machine tool parts.
4 DIAMENSIONS INFOTECH 23
Total Runout is how much one entire feature or surface varies with respect
to a datum when the part is rotated 360° around the datum axis.

TYPES OF WELDING
The main Types of welding used in industry and by home
engineers are commonly referred to as :
MIG WELDING :-
More commonly called MIG welding this welding type is the most
widely used and perhaps the most easily mastered type of welding
for industry and home use.
The GMAW (Gas Metal Arc Welding) process is suitable for fusing
mild steel, stainless steel as well as aluminum.

The welding symbol has an arrow, which points to the location on the
The weld symbol may also be placed above the reference line, rather
than below it. This placement is important.
When the weld symbol hangs below the reference line, it indicates
that the weld must be performed on the "arrow side" of the joint.
15. Now, if the weld symbol appears on top of the reference line,
then the weld should be made on the opposite side of the joint where
the arrow points
4 DIAMENSIONS INFOTECH 29
16. If the weld symbol appears on both sides of the reference line,
as shown below, it specifies that a weld must be performed on both
sides of the joint.
17. A flagpole indicates a field weld, which simply tells the welder
to perform the work on site, rather than in the shop.

Limits:
The maximum and minimum permissible sizes within which the actual size
of a component lies are called Limits.
Unilateral : When the two limit dimensions are only on one side of the
nominal size, (either above or below) the tolerances are said to be
unilateral.
Bilateral Tolerance: When the two limit dimensions are above and below
nominal size, (i.e. on either side of the nominal size) the tolerances are said
to be bilateral.
4 DIAMENSIONS INFOTECH 31
Basic size: It is the size of a part in relation to which all limits of variation
are determined.
Zero Line: It is the line w.r.t which the positions of tolerance zones are
shown.
4 DIAMENSIONS INFOTECH 32
FIT
In engineering terms, the "fit" is the clearance between two mating parts,
and the size of this clearance determines whether the parts can move
independently from each other, or are then temporarily or even
permanently joined.
A. Clearance fit:
In this type of fit, the largest permitted shaft diameter is less than the
smallest hole diameter so that the shaft can rotate or slide according to the
purpose of the assembly.
B. Interference Fit:
C. Transition Fit:
In this type of fit, the diameter of the largest allowable hole is greater than
the smallest shaft, but the smallest hole is smaller than the largest shaft,
4 DIAMENSIONS INFOTECH 34
such that a small positive or negative clearance exists between the shaft &
hole.
FORMING PROCESSES
Forging
Extrusion
Rolling
Sheet metal working
Some metals may be forged cold, but iron and steel are almost always
hot forged. Hot forging prevents the work hardening that would result
from cold forming, which would increase the difficulty of performing
secondary machining operations on the piece.
4 DIAMENSIONS INFOTECH 36
SHEET METAL
There are many different metals that can be made into sheet metal, such
as aluminum, brass, copper, steel, tin, nickel and titanium. For
decorative uses, some important sheet metals include silver, gold, and
platinum
CUTTING OFF : Material is going to cut in a single line, there won’t be any
waste.
BENDING :
BEND ANGLE:- It is the angle between two perpendicular lines drawn from
flange to center of radius.
4 DIAMENSIONS INFOTECH 39
NEUTRAL PLANE:- The plane in the material in between the outer & inner
layers experiences no stress. This is called neutral plane.
K factor - is a ratio between the distance from the neutral bend line to the
inside bend radius and the material thickness The K-Factor ( K ) depends
on the material

Shallow draw– A drawn piece part which requires only one drawing
operation.
HOLE FLANGING :-
The characteristics of material that describes the behavior under the action
of external load are referred as its mechanical properties.
Strength :
Elasticity:
Plasticity:
Ductility:
Ductility is the property by which a metal can be drawn into thin wires. It is
determined by percentage elongation and percentage reduction in area of a
metal.
Toughness:
When a huge external force is applied on a metal, the metal will experience
fracture. Toughness is the ability of a metal to resist fracture.
Malleability:
It is the property by which a metal can be rolled into thin sheets. Highly
malleable metals (like Mild Steel) are extensively used in making sheet
metals.
Strength:
Stiffness:
Creep:
When a metal is subjected to a constant load (below its yield point), at high
temperature, for a prolonged period of time, it undergoes a permanent
deformation. This tendency of the metal is called creep.
Resilience:
Resilience is the ability of a metal to absorb energy and resist soft and
impact load.
Hardness:
GEAR’S
There are many types of gears such as spur gears, helical gears, bevel
gears, worm gears, gear rack, etc. Even after choosing the general
type, it is important to consider factors such as: dimensions (module,
number of teeth, helix angle, face width, etc.)
Spur gears are the most easily visualized common gears that transmit
motion between two parallel shafts. Spur gears are the most widely used
gears that can achieve high accuracy with relatively easy production
processes.
4 DIAMENSIONS INFOTECH 47
Helical gears are one type of cylindrical gears with slanted tooth trace.
Compared to spur gears, they have the larger contact ratio and excel in
quietness and less vibration and able to transmit large force.
Gear racks are utilized to convert rotating movement into linear motion.
Rack and pinions are used for lifting mechanisms (vertical movement),
horizontal movement On the other hand, they are also used in steering
systems to change the direction of cars.
4 DIAMENSIONS INFOTECH 48
Are usually used when large speed reductions are needed As for the
materials for production, in general, worm is made of hard metal while the
worm gear is made from relatively soft metal such as aluminum bronze.
This is because the number of teeth on the worm gear is relatively high
compared to worm
Internal gears have teeth cut on the inside of cylinders or cones and are
paired with external gears

Bolts are for the assembly of two unthreaded components, with the aid
of a nut.
A nut is a type of fastener with a threaded hole. Nuts are almost always
used in conjunction with a mating bolt to fasten multiple parts together

BOLT TYPES:
ANCHOR BOLT –
ARBOR BOLT -
CARRIAGE BOLT - Bolt with a smooth rounded head and a square section to
prevent turning followed with a threaded section for a nut.

DRILLING
A drilling machine, called a drill press, is used to cut holes into or through
metal, wood, or other materials
Drilling machines use a drilling tool that has cutting edges at its point. This
cutting tool is held in the drill press by a chuck or Morse taper and is
rotated and fed into the work at variable speeds.
