- (Richardson, Texas) started a Mechanical Tolerancing and Performance Center for Excellence to deploy mechanical tolerancing at TI. He is a member of ASME, 14/SC5, and the Dimensioning and Tolerancing Committee. He currently works at Raytheon.
- Geometric Dimensioning and Tolerancing Geometric dimensioning and tolerancing (GDT) is o a method of defining parts based on how they function, using standard ASME/ANSI symbols; o a system of specifying certain types of dimens ions and tolerances.

Walter M.Stites is a graduate of California State University, Northridge. His 20-year tenure at AccraTronics Seals Corp began with six years in the machine shop, where he performed every task from operating a hand drill press to making tools and fixtures. Trained in coordinate measuring machine (CMM) programming in 1983, he has since written more than 1,000 CMM programs. He also performs product design, manufacturing engineering, and drafting. In 12 years of computer-assisted drafting, he s generated more than 800 engineering drawings, most employing GD&T. He has written various manuals, technical reports, and articles for journals. Mr. Stites is currently secretary of the ASME Y14.5 subcommittee and a key player in the ongoing development of national drafting standards.
5.1 Introducing Geometric Dimensioning and Tolerancing (GD&T)
Geometric Dimensioning And Tolerancing Book
When a hobbyist needs a simple part for a project, he might go straight to the little lathe or milling machine in his garage and produce it in a matter of minutes. Since he is designer, manufacturer, and inspector all in one, he doesn t need a drawing. In most commercial manufacturing, however, the designer(s), manufacturer(s), and inspector(s) are rarely the same person, and may even work at different companies, performing their respective tasks weeks or even years apart.
Geometric Dimensioning And Tolerancing Training
A designer often starts by creating an ideal assembly, where all the parts fit together with optimal tightnesses and clearances. He will have to convey to each part s manufacturer the ideal sizes and shapes, or nominal...
