At the end of the course, participants will be able to understand -

• Importance of applying correct GD&T on drawings
• Important GD&T terms and definitions
• Relationship of geometric characteristics and feature types such as RFS, MMC, and LMC conditions and calculate bonus tolerance
• Inspection of GD&T features using conventional, CMM's & Functional gauges
• Application of GD&T controls for new product development using case studies
• ASME Y14.5M standard codebook for practice
• Preparation for ASME Certification
• Complimentary ASME membership for non-member participants

• Understanding the system of GD&T and the methods of applying it in real-time design by using case studies, examples, and exercises
• Cover the philosophies of how, when, and where to apply geometric along with common sense tips for producing quality parts.
• Provide a solid grounding in the fundamentals of geometric tolerancing based on the latest ASME Y14.5-2009 Standard.
• Prepare participants for the ASME Geometric Dimensioning& Tolerancing Professional (GDTP-Technologist) Level examination.

The course is suited for beginners as well as experienced professionals with no prior OR minimal GD&T experience, who are looking to get in-depth knowledge and grip on best practices in GD&T and the ASMEY14.5M-2009 standard OR are aiming for ASME GDTP Technologist Certification.

At the end of this course, the participants will also attempt a mock test based on the ASME GDTP - "Body of Knowledge" Guide to prepare individuals for the ASME GDTP-Technologist certification exam. The Answer Key will also be provided to all participants after completion of the Mock test, for self-evaluation.

This program will be conducted by Mr. M. Krishnamoorthy

Mr. Krishnamoorthy, is former Senior Director of IMTMA Technology Centre and an authorized training instructor with ASME, NY for delivering accredited ASME GD&T Trainings. He has undergone advanced training in GD&T from ASME in Seattle, USA. He is a certified ASME GDTP Senior Professional after successful completion of Senior Level GDTP certification examination by ASME, USA.

For over 38 years of his continued engineering practice in the industry, he has acquired astute expertise in the application and use of GD&T principles in CAD/CAM, high precision CNC machining as well as conducting Technical Training. He has imparted specialized training in GD&T for more than 1000 engineers across manufacturing companies in India and assisted them in implementing GD&T in design through manufacturing.

He is a postgraduate in Production Engineering from PSG College of Technology, Coimbatore. Prior to working at IMTMA, Mr Krishnamoorthy has worked at ISRO Satellite Centre, Bangalore in the field of Precision Machining of the satellite on-board components. After ISRO, he was with Perfect Moulds and UMS technologies as a specialist in Tool Planning and Production and Technical Training in CAD/CAM/CAE, respectively.
