Geometric Dimensioning and Tolerancing (GD&T) in Design through Manufacturing

Date : 10 to 11 January, 2025

Venue : Indian Machine Tool Manufacturers Association, Chennai

INTRODUCTION

Understand the role of GD&T in reduction of manufacturing cost and lead time as well as enhanced product reliability.Thorough knowledge in GD&T – the essential link, connecting the functional departments in the manufacturing industry – is a must for engineers. Many a times lack of proper understanding / misconceptions about GD&T lead to depriving the true benefits of GD&T in terms of enhanced reliability of the product, saving in manufacturing cost, reduction in lead time, etc. Learn the fundamentals of GD&T in detail with application examples.

Keeping this in view, Indian Machine Tool Manufacturers' Association is organising a 2 days offline training programme on "Geometric Dimensioning and Tolerancing (GD&T) in Design through Manufacturing" at Advanced Manufacturing Technology Development Centre (AMTDC), Ground Floor Block 'B', IIT Madras Research Park, Kanagam Road, Taramani, Chennai - 600 113.
