Geometric Dimensioning and Tolerancing Training

In modern engineering and manufacturing, producing precise, functional products is essential. Geometrical Dimensioning and Tolerancing (GD&T) is an international language used to standardise product design and manufacture. It provides clarity when dimensioning components and defining their tolerances.

Training Objectives
GD&T training aims to teach participants the principles of geometrical dimensioning and tolerancing. It helps them express tolerances correctly on engineering drawings and inspect components effectively after manufacture. By the end of the course, participants can apply the fundamental rules of GD&T, perform tolerance analyses and improve quality control processes.

Course Content
Fundamentals of GD&T

Definition and importance of geometrical tolerances
Standards: ASME Y14.5 and ISO 1101
Basic principles of measurement and dimensioning
Types of Geometrical Tolerance

Form tolerances (flatness, circularity, cylindricity, etc.)
Location and orientation tolerances (concentricity, parallelism, perpendicularity, etc.)
Profile and runout tolerances
Reference Systems and Datums

Establishing reference frames
Selection and importance of datums
Datum-based tolerancing
GD&T Symbols and Their Use on Engineering Drawings

Correct application of GD&T symbols on engineering drawings
Reading and analysing an engineering drawing dimensioned using GD&T
Tolerance Analysis and Manufacturing Processes

Effects of tolerances on production
Critical dimensions and functional design
Post-production measurement and quality control
Who Should Attend?
GD&T training is designed particularly for professionals working in production, design and quality control. Its main audience includes engineers, technicians, CAD operators and students seeking careers in these fields.

Benefits of the Training

Learn to use geometrical tolerances in accordance with international standards
Improve efficiency in production and quality control
Improve clarity and reduce communication errors in engineering drawings
Increase functionality and precision in product designs
Use GD&T-compatible software, such as CAD applications, effectively

Conclusion
Geometrical Dimensioning and Tolerancing Training develops an essential skill for improving quality and reducing costs in engineering and manufacturing. It is an important step for professionals who want to work effectively with modern manufacturing technologies.

Technical Drawing Preparation and Reading Training

Engineering drawings are a means of communication used in engineering, architecture and industrial design. They express the details, dimensions, material types and manufacturing methods of a design or product visually and technically. The ability to prepare and read engineering drawings is therefore critical for professionals working in these fields.

Training Objectives
The main objective of training in preparing and reading engineering drawings is to teach participants how to produce drawings that comply with the relevant standards and interpret them correctly. By the end of the training, participants develop the skills to present designs professionally on paper or digitally and analyse existing drawings.

Course Content
Engineering drawing training generally comprises theoretical and practical modules. The course covers:

Engineering Drawing Standards

International and national standards such as ISO, DIN and TSE
Drawing formats and use of scales
Technical lettering and symbols
Basic Drawing Techniques

Geometrical drawings
Creating sections and views
Perspective drawings
Dimensioning and Tolerances

Dimensioning rules
Types of tolerance (dimensional, form and location tolerances)
Surface texture and machining symbols
Assembly and Component Drawings

Creating a parts list
Presenting assembly details
Specifying technical instructions on drawings
Computer-Aided Design (CAD)

Using software such as AutoCAD and SolidWorks
2D and 3D drawing techniques
Digital file management
Who Should Attend?
Engineering drawing training is ideal for engineers, technicians, architects, professionals working in production and design, and students studying these subjects. Production personnel who find engineering drawings difficult to read and people seeking a career in this field can also attend.

Benefits of the Training
Prepare engineering drawings quickly and accurately
Improve production processes by interpreting existing drawings
Develop designs that comply with international standards
Benefit from modern drawing tools using CAD applications

Conclusion
Training in preparing and reading engineering drawings equips participants with both theoretical knowledge and practical skills, helping them become more capable professionals. It supports more efficient design and production processes at both individual and organisational levels.

ISO 17020 accreditation

ISO/IEC 17020:2026 addresses requirements for the competence, impartiality and consistent operation of inspection bodies. The current independence classification comprises Type A and Type non-A structures.

Inspection bodies check and confirm that inspected items comply with legislation, standards, specifications, inspection schemes and contracts.

An accreditation application is prepared by assessing the inspection body's activities, independence structure and relevant edition of the standard. Assessment and the accreditation decision are the responsibility of the relevant competent body.
