MEM 201 Fundamentals of Computer Aided Design Geometrical Dimensioning Tolerancing (GDT) Department of Mechanical Engineering and Mechanics Today’s Objectives….. • Tolerances and why do we need them. • Different types of tolerances. • To learn how to effectively tolerance parts in engineering drawings. • Allowance/Clearance • Expressing tolerances in AutoCAD. Department of Mechanical Engineering and Mechanics Tolerancing • Definition: “Allowance for a specific variation in the size and geometry of part.” • Why is it needed: No one or thing is perfect ! • Hence, engineers have come up with a way to make things close to perfect by specifying Tolerances ! – Since variation from the drawing is inevitable the acceptable degree of variation must be specified. – Large variation may affect the functionality of the part – Small variation will effect the cost of the part • requires precise manufacturing. • requires inspection and the rejection of parts. Department of Mechanical Engineering and Mechanics When does Tolerances become important • Assemblies: Parts will often not fit together if their dimensions do not fall with in a certain range of values. • Interchangeability: If a replacement part is used it must be a duplicate of the original part within certain limits of deviation. • The relationship between functionality and size or shape of an object varies from part to part. Tolerances do not affect its function Tolerances are important here ! Department of Mechanical Engineering and Mechanics Food for thought: Tolerance levels in this mechanism? Department of Mechanical Engineering and Mechanics Tolerance in relation to $$$$ • Cost generall
