    Geometric dimensioning and tolerancing (GD&T) complements traditional dimensional tolerancing by letting you control 14 different geometric characteristics. It applies tolerances to the form of features, instead of just to their dimensions.
    This videos covers the different geometric characteristics and other key aspects of GD&T including datums, material modifiers (MMC, LMC and RFS), the Envelope Principle (also called GD&T Rule #1), and the Independency Principle.

    I know you probably won't ever read this, but you don't understand how massively grateful and happy I am that I found this channel. I genuinely, no joke, don't think I could do Mechanical Engineering at university if it wasn't for this channel and I just want to thank you for everything you've done and everything you continue to do. You will never understand how appreciated you are and I have told and will continue to tell fellow engineering students how awesome and fun you can make engineering to learn compared to the lecturers I'm stuck with. Thank you so much.

    @Kelvin_Foo Před rokem +36

    This is one of the clearest description of GD&T I've seen. Explains tolerance zones and geometry control tools pretty well. When trying to explain these to new engineers, I tend to use various shapes of pasta, or GD & spaghetti.
    Every time I saw a drawing with circularity or concentricity, it was because the part designer really wanted position instead. In any case, I heard the concentricity tool has been removed from the 2018 update of Y14.5.

      @@A.Hisham86 GD&T is not a straightforward topic and really requires the ability to visualize objects in 3D to understand the concepts. That said the video is a decent intro to the subject. Proper professional training is still very much needed.

    This is, without a doubt, the best educational and well-made video I have ever seen about GD&T! I have been studying Mechanical Engineering for many years now and always had a hard time wrapping my head around some of these concepts still, the way you lay it out in the video is super intuitive! You also have absolutely fantastic animations, they are so clear, and precise and show accurately what is needed to get the point across. This is absolutely invaluable to anyone starting out with this! Thank you so much for all the time and effort you put into this!

    @Robert8455 Před rokem +12

    This must be one of the best videos explaining GD&T. I started my career on a drafting board and then moved our company onto CAD in the late 80s' and it was a long time before ANSI Y14.5 creeped in and was finally adapted on new designs. We still had a long road a head to train everyone down stream on what these funny looking symbols meant. If we had something like this video way back then it would have been incredibly powerful. Well done. Absolutely love the clarity of the details and colors used to illustrate, the pace and smoothness of the presentation is excellent.

    I’m an apprentice engineer, just coming up on finishing my first year at the company I’m working for, and the other day a guy who works in design (a CAD expert) was helping me with some simple tolerancing, and said “you wait until you have to learn geometric tolerancing.” When I see him next, I don’t doubt I’ll be able to have a decent conversation with him about it, and this video has, at the absolute least, given me a massive step up on the other apprentices when it comes to CAD.
