What is GD&T in 10 Minutes

You might be wondering What is GD&T? The short answer is “it’s a system of dimensioning and tolerancing from the American Society of Mechanical Engineers which allows you to know with 100% certainty that your parts will fit and function within their next-level assembly. For a bit more detail watch this short 10 minute video!

This video was created to help beginners rapidly understand GD&T and quickly use the concepts in practical applications. Technical vocabulary was purposefully NOT used in an attempt to convey these topics to those who do NOT have a background in GD&T.

    Excellent excellent excellent….



  8. M.Sheriff on September 20, 2023 at 10:24 pm

    Stands for Geometric Dimensioning & Tolerancing, right?

    you’re awesome!!!! This was very helpful.



  16. Francisco Rodrigurez on September 20, 2023 at 10:31 pm

    Good info teacher help to my self-service my fixtures



  17. Guven Colak on September 20, 2023 at 10:34 pm

    Why you do not explain what is that symbol
    What is GD&T
    how we can read it
    How



  18. M.Sheriff on September 20, 2023 at 10:35 pm

    Is this applicable to BS 8888?



  19. Stefan Feldrihan on September 20, 2023 at 10:37 pm

    You are better than the long hair guy :))



  20. Ashwin Mathur on September 20, 2023 at 10:37 pm

    very awesome video



  21. Ashley on September 20, 2023 at 10:37 pm

    I like straight to the point. This helped me prepare for an interview- thank you!



  22. Soft Softwares on September 20, 2023 at 10:38 pm

    Thank you



  23. R DG on September 20, 2023 at 10:40 pm

    good video, but why not explain what the M symbol means? or the entire GDT symbol boxes by boxes starting with the localisation target on the left?



  24. amol aegade on September 20, 2023 at 10:40 pm

    Dear sir please answer how these geometric tolerance values are chosen or on what basis are they calculated…. please answer



  25. Rodrigo Araujo on September 20, 2023 at 10:40 pm

    Amazing video but I do have a question, how the GDT technically guarantees with 100% certainty the part will fit?



  26. Jiama * on September 20, 2023 at 10:40 pm

    Where have you been?



  27. Herman Munchther on September 20, 2023 at 10:41 pm

    You didn’t tell us what any of the symbols meant. Pointless video. Tell us for 10 mins the same thing over and over worded differently is not helpful



  28. Igor A on September 20, 2023 at 10:42 pm

    Cool!



  29. Austin Omonuwa on September 20, 2023 at 10:43 pm

    Romantically broken down!. Most likely going to stick for a long time.



  30. gon on September 20, 2023 at 10:43 pm

    great video



  31. Liu Jack on September 20, 2023 at 10:43 pm

    Thanks for so professional explains, very useful!



  32. liza sdn on September 20, 2023 at 10:44 pm

    Thank god i found your video before teaching it to my students.. its very clear n simple..



  33. Andy Reiswig on September 20, 2023 at 10:45 pm

    Really great teaching, very clear



  34. Adam Hill on September 20, 2023 at 10:45 pm

    I love this guy.



  35. maha raja on September 20, 2023 at 10:45 pm

    It’s just a 10mins but a very strong fundamental details.👍



  36. bronzeowl9 on September 20, 2023 at 10:48 pm

    I’m not sure yet what the difference is between traditional D&T and GD&T. If I receive a diagram with both kinds of D&T, like the one at 7:44, then why can’t I use the traditional GD&T to guarantee that the parts fit and function together? Is traditional D&T more of a soft guideline or something?

    Genius but unfortunately the thought hasn’t been completed



  48. Dark Phoenix on September 20, 2023 at 11:05 pm

    Awesome 😎 super explanation.



  49. SmartBikesTV on September 20, 2023 at 11:05 pm

    The intro explaning the essence of geometric function is great: Only in the contex of an assembly a function is realized. But no one is bothered by the lack of an explicit functional specification. I’m afraid so it can’t be surprising that the presented gd&t of a single part has errors: E.g. datum B and C are equal? Take care for the function: Every real feature of a datum has a toleance itself. This must be taken into account when calculating the calling geometric toleances! By the way one last question: What are the mainfunctions of a geometric feature? It would be very helpful to clearify this first.

    Thank you for your explanation… Best Regards 🇧🇷
