Dimensioning, Tolerancing and Gaging Applied

Designed as a supplement to the National Standards ASME Y14.5M-1994 -- for those with a basic or limited knowledge of the subject -- this workbook helps readers build a bridge from the conceptual world of QS 9000 to the world of the manufactured product. Using a simplified, connected, applied-for-mfg.-approach, it starts from the design perspective of ASME Y14.5M-1994, and then relates these principles and rules to the manufactured product -- with appropriate quality controls in order to complete the process outlined in ISO 9000. Emphasizes the importance of all areas -- engineering, manufacturing, and quality -- working in harmony and from related national standards. Contains data and examples on applied gaging and measurement, and incorporates the fundamental principles of ASME Y14.5 Dimensioning and Tolerancing, B4.1 and 4.2 Preferred Limits and Fits, B89.3.6 Gaging and Fixturing for GDT (formerly B4.4 Inspection of Workpieces), and the impact of B89.6 (temperature and Humidity). Includes over 240 figures, diagrams, and charts. For mechanical engineers interested in dimensioning, tolerancing, and gaging.
