Geometric Dimensioning and Tolerancing (GD&T)

Attention to Detail
The engineering drawing is the specification for the component or assembly and is an important contractual document with many legal implications, every line and every comment is important.

Coordinate Dimensioning and Tolerancing

ANSI standard - ASME Y14.5M

The collective process of modeling, defining and describing geometric sizes and feature relationships, and providing all of the required technical information necessary to produce and inspect the part is called dimensioning and tolerancing.

The current National Standard for dimensioning and tolerancing in the United States is ASME Y14.5M - 1994.

Arrowheads
Arrowheads are used as terminators on dimension lines. The points of the arrowheads on leader lines and dimension lines must make contact with the feature object line or extension lines which represent the feature being dimensioned. The standard size ratio for all arrowheads on mechanical drawings is 3:1 (length to width).

Dimension Lines and Extension Lines

Extension lines overlap dimension lines (beyond the point of the arrowheads) by a distance of roughly 2-3mm

There should be a visible gap (~1.5 mm) between the object lines and the beginning of each extension line.

Reference dimensions are used on drawings to provide support information only. They are values that have been derived from other dimensions and therefore should not be used for calculation, production or inspection of parts. The use of reference dimensions on drawings should be minimized.

Location of Dimensions
Shorter (intermediate) dimensions are placed closest to the outline of the part, followed by dimensions of greater length. Dimensions nearest the object outline should be at least .375 inches (10 mm) away from the object, and succeeding parallel dimension lines should be at least .250 inches (6 mm) apart.

The X symbol can also be used to indicate the word by. For instance, when a slot that has a given width by a specified length, or a chamfer that has equal sides (.12 X .12). When used to imply the word by, a space must precede and follow the X symbol. If the same feature is repeated on the drawing (such as 8 holes of the same diameter and in a specified pattern), the number of times the instruction applies is called out using the symbol X.

Drawing Notes

important to interchangeability and provision for replacement parts

It is impossible to make parts to an exact size. The tolerance, or accuracy required, will depend on the function of the part and the particular feature being dimensioned. Therefore, the range of permissible size, or tolerance, must be specified for all dimensions on a drawing, by the designer/draftsperson. Nominal Size: is the size used for general identification, not the exact size. Actual Size: is the measured dimension. A shaft of nominal diameter 10 mm may be measured to be an actual size of 9.975 mm. General Tolerances: In ISO metric, general tolerances are specified in a note, usually in the title block, typically of the form: "General tolerances .25 unless otherwise stated". In English Units , the decimal place indicates the general tolerance given in the title block notes, typically: Fractions = 1/16, .X = .03, .XX = .01, .XXX = .005, .XXXX = 0.0005, Note: Fractions and this type of general tolerancing is not permissible in ISO metric standards.

Tolerances

Specific Tolerances
Specific Tolerances indicate a special situation that cannot be covered by the general tolerance.

Specific tolerances are placed on the drawing with the dimension and have traditionally been expressed in a number of ways:
+0.05 40 - 0.03 Bilateral Tolerance
40.01 +0.04

40.05 39.97 Limit Dimensions

Unilateral Tolerance

Limits are the maximum and minimum sizes permitted by the the tolerance. All of the above methods show that the dimension has: a Lower Limit = 39.97 mm an Upper Limit = 40.05 mm a Tolerance = 0.08 mm Manufacturing must ensure that the dimensions are kept within the limits specified. Design must not over specify as tolerances have an exponential affect on cost.

Extract from Table of Clearance Fits
RC 1 Close sliding fits are intended for the accurate location of parts which must assemble without perceptible play. RC 2 Sliding fits are intended for accurate location, but with greater maximum clearance than class RC 1. Parts made to this fit move and turn easily but are not intended to run freely, and in the larger sizes may seize with small temperature changes. RC 3 Precision running fits are about the closest fits which can be expected to run freely, and are intended for precision work at slow speeds and light journal pressures, but are not suitable where appreciable temperature differences are likely to be encountered. RC 4 Close running fits are intended chiefly for running fits on accurate machinery with moderate surface speeds and journal pressures, where accurate location and minimum play are desired. RC 5 Medium running fits are intended for higher running speeds, or heavy journal pressures, or both. RC 6 Basic hole system. Limits are in thousandths of an inch. Class RC 1

ISO Tolerance Designation

The ISO system provides for: 21 types of holes (standard tolerances) designated by uppercase letters A, B, C, D, E....etc. and 21 types of shafts designated by the lower case letters a, b, c, d, e...etc. These letters define the position of the tolerance zone relative to the nominal size. To each of these types of hole or shaft are applied 16 grades of tolerance, designated by numbers IT1 to IT16 - the "Fundamental Tolerances": ITn = (0.45 x 3 D +0.001 D) Pn
where D is the mean of the range of diameters and Pn is the progression:1, 1.6, 2.5, 4.0, 6.0, 10, 16, 25......etc. which makes each tolerance grade approximately 60% of its predecessor.

For Example:
Experience has shown that the dimensional accuracy of manufactured parts is approximately proportional to the cube root of the size of the part.
Example: A hole is specified as:

30 H7

The H class of holes has limits of + x . i.e. all tolerances +0 start at the nominal size and go positive by the amount designated by the IT number. IT7 for diameters ranging 30- 50 mm: Tolerance for IT7 = (0.45 x 3 40 +0.001x 40) 16 = 0.025 mm Written on a drawing as 30 H7 +0.025 +0

Selection of Fits and the ISO Hole Basis system

From the above it will be realized that there are a very large number of combinations of hole deviation and tolerance with shaft deviation and tolerance. However, a given manufacturing organization will require a number of different types of fit ranging from tight drive fits to light running fits for bearings etc. Such a series of fits may be obtained using one of two standard systems:

The Shaft Basis System: The Hole Basis System:

For a given nominal size a series of fits is arranged for a given nominal size using a standard shaft and varying the limits on the hole. For a given nominal size, the limits on the hole are kept constant, and a series of fits are obtained by only varying the limits on the shaft. The HOLE SYSTEM is commonly used because holes are more difficult to produce to a given size and are more difficult to inspect. The H series (lower limit at nominal, 0.00) is typically used and standard tooling (e.g. H7 reamers) and gauges are common for this standard.

ISO Standard "Hole Basis"

Clearance Fits

Type of Fit
Loose Running Fits. Suitable for loose pulleys and the looser fastener fits where freedom of assembly is of prime importance Free Running Fit. Where accuracy is not essential, but good for large temperature variation, high running speeds, heavy journal pressures Close Running Fit. Suitable for lubricated bearing, greater accuracy, accurate location, where no substantial temperature difference is encountered. Sliding Fits. Suitable for precision location fits. Shafts are expensive to manufacture since the clearances are small and they are not recommended for running fits except in precision equipment where the shaft loadings are very light. Locational Clearance Fits. Provides snug fit for locating stationary parts; but can be freely assembled and disassembled.

Allowance The minimum allowable difference between mating parts: Allowance = Smallest Hole Size - Largest Shaft Size Clearance The maximum allowable difference between mating parts: Clearance = Largest Hole Size - Smallest Shaft Size The 'Tolerance Build-up Problem' Where the combined dimension of several mating parts results in an unacceptable condition: generally non-functional (e.g. rotating or sliding action impaired), or parts will not assemble, or aesthetically unacceptable (e.g. inconsistent gaps around car doors)
'Shaft in hole' Terminology Hole Shaft

Shaft in Hole Example

Worst Case Tolerancing

1. Allowance = Smallest Hole Size (A) Largest Shaft Size (B) 2. Clearance = Largest Hole Size (A) Smallest Shaft Size (B) A

If dimension with tolerance is 10

+ 0.125 - 0.125

Lid on Box Example

Largest feature size = 10.125

Smallest feature size = 9.875

Worst Case Tolerancing:

1. Allowance = Smallest Hole Size (76.16) Largest Shaft Size (76.15) = 0.01
2. Clearance = Largest Hole Size (76.25) Smallest Shaft Size (76.00) = 0.25

Some Common Steel, Hardness and Surface Finish Specs.

Common Steel Specs: (10xx series: xx = % carbon) Mild steel (low carbon = up to 30 %): Low cost general purpose applications, typ. hardening not required

Common Types 1020 1040,

Medium Carbon (up to 60%): requiring higher strength; e.g. gears, 1060 axles, con-rods etc. High Carbon (> 60%): High wear, high strength; e.g. cutting tools, springs etc. Ground Bearing Shaft Examples:

1080

General Purpose
1060: Surface HDN to 55 HRC 0.125 mm deep min.; 0.4 m (16 ) 303 Stainless: (natural surface hardness 5 HRC ); 0.4m (16 ) Better Finish, Longer Life

1020: Case HDN to 65 HRC 0.25 mm deep min.; 0.2m (8 )

440 Stainless: (natural circa 15 HRC); 0.2m (8 )
