Background

Geometric Dimensioning and Tolerancing (GD&T) system eliminates ambiguities in engineering drawings and brings out the designer's intent very clearly. It ensures seamless communication between design, engineering, manufacturing and quality teams across the entire organization enabling them to work in a concurrent engineering environment. In the competitive industrial scenario prevailing today, proper application of the GD&T system helps the companies to reduce manufacturing and inspection costs.
