Measuring Equipment Course

Geometric Dimensioning and Tolerancing (GD&T)

Not just a 'how to read your micrometer' course
An in-depth tutorial on measurement theories and practices

This is the first course of the GD&T series that is designed to teach you everything you need to know about the measurement equipment that you will use in a machine shop.

Aimed at beginners in the world of machine shop theory with no previous knowledge required.

As machinists or machine shop inspectors, we need to be able to measure accurately. This course will teach you how to use your measuring equipment correctly.

If you are new to working in a machine shop, the amount of information you need to learn can seem overwhelming. This course will teach you the best practices for not just using your handheld tools, but also how to check and calibrate them to ensure that are reading correctly so you can trust your parts will be correct.

There is more to using vernier calipers, micrometers and gauges than just reading the tool. With correct use and proper calibration, you can be confident that you are measuring your components correctly and accurately.

The following subjects are covered in this course:

  • Reading your equipment correctly
  • Understanding the theories on how the equipment works
  • Knowing the right tool for the job
  • Calibration and checking your equipment
  • Gaining that inspectors 'feel' to get the correct measurement every time
  • In-depth tuition on the theory of measurement using handheld tools
  • Less rejected parts

    • Made for new machinists
