Technical product documentation using ISO GPS - ASME GD&T standardsFOREWORDDesigners create perfect and ideal geometries through drawings or by means ofComputer Aided Design systems, but unfortunately the real geometrical featuresof manufactured components are imperfect, in terms of form, size, orientation andlocation.Therefore, technicians, designers and engineers need a symbolic language thatallows them to define, in a complete, clear and unambiguous way, the admissiblevariations, with respect to the ideal geometries, in order to guarantee functionalityand assemblability, and to turn inspection into a scientifically controllable process.The Geometric Product Specification (GPS) and Geometrical Dimensioning and Tolerancing (GD&T) languages are the most powerful tools available to link the perfectgeometrical world of models and drawings to the imperfect world of manufacturedparts and assemblies.This book is intended for designers, process engineers and CMM operators, andit has the main purpose of presenting the ISO GPS rules and concepts. Moreover,the differences between ISO GPS and the American ASME Y14.5M standard areshown as a guide and reference for the drawing interpretation of the most commondimensioning and tolerancing notations.A complete SolidWorks MBD tutorial has been added to the appendix of this book:SOLIDWORKS Model Based Definition (MBD) is a drawingless manufacturing solution that is embedded inside a SOLIDWORKS user interface. It helps companiesdefine, organise and publish product and manufacturing information (PMI) in a 3Dformat that complies with international standards.The author, Professor Stefano Tornincasa, has carried out research activitiesfor over thirty years in the field of functional design and geometric tolerances.He was President of the ADM Improve Association (Innovative Methods inPROduct design and deVElopment) from 2011 to 2015 and has publishedmore than 180 national and international scientific papers.He is co-author of the best-selling book on Industrial Technical Drawing, whichis currently adopted in the design courses of most Italian universities (E. Chirone,S. Tornincasa, Industrial Engineering Design, Volumes I and II, ed. Il capitelloTorino).Professor Tornincasa has conducted training courses on GD&T in many of themain manufacturing companies in Italy, and it is from this activity that he hasderived his skill and experience in functional design.His other research topics have been focused on product development, cycleinnovation through digital models and virtual prototyping methodologies (PLM)http://webd.polito.it/workbook/3
