Tolerance Stackup Course Module - ISquare

The two-day course teaches tolerance stack-up analysis using coordinate dimensioning and geometric dimensioning and tolerancing (GD&T). It aims to help designers predict and solve assembly issues, evaluate proposals, and increase understanding of GD&T. Participants will learn to calculate stacks for single parts and multi-part assemblies, create vertical and horizontal loops, analyze assemblies with fixed and floating fasteners, and perform single part analyses. Examples will cover topics like minimum and maximum gaps, interference calculations, and applying assembly conditions.

Course Objectives:
The course is designed to introduce the Tolerance Stacks and analysis through goal setting and initiatives
and is recommended for those who are already familiar with fundamentals of GD&T. The Tolerance Stack
up analysis course has following objectives:
Increasing designer’s understanding of part functioning, assembly relationships.
Predict and Solve assembly build problems well in advance than at prototype or production stage.
Appreciating Tolerance Stack-up as decision making tool at early design stage
Evaluating various proposals and ECRs / ECNs
Increasing Designers understanding of Geometric Dimensioning & Tolerancing (GD&T)
Ability to calculate stack-ups for single part and multi part assemblies having +/- tolerances as well as
GD&T

It is expected that the participants have basic knowledge of engineering drawing practices/
fundamental rules and Fundamentals of GD&T.

Course Duration:
Two Full Days (16hrs).
Courseware:
We recommend you to purchase a a book “Tolerance Stack-up Analysis” by James Meadows. You can
purchase the same directly from publisher in USA or we can arrange to purchase the book on your behalf.
One soft/hard copy of the courseware will be provided to you to duplicate at your end. Relevant examples
and exercises of single part and assembly stacks using co-ordinate dimensioning and GD&T shall be
covered in the training.

The Basics of Tolerance Stacks:


Definition of Stacks
Where to begin a stack?
Positive and negative routes
Objectives (what are we calculating?)
Which dimensions are factors?
Arranging parts to create the worst case configuration
Which geometric tolerances affect or don’t affect goals?
Calculating mean dimensions
Calculating boundaries for GD&T controls having MMC, LMC and RFS Material Condition modifiers
Converting dimensions to Mean boundaries with equal bilateral tolerances
Loop Analysis: Creating Vertical and Horizontal Loops for FOS (Feature of
Size):
Where to start and end?
Creating the loop
Minimum and maximum gap analysis

Assemblies with parts having Plus/Minus (+/-) Tolerances:


Multiple dimension loops
Positive and negative values
Airspace vs. material interferences

Studying an Assembly with Floating Fastener:


Understanding Resultant conditions
Understanding Virtual conditions
Understanding Inner and outer boundaries
Mean boundaries
Converting to radii
Combining planer features and diameters
Complex loop analyses with GD&T

Studying an Assembly with Fixed Fastener:


Calculating overall minimum and maximum assembly dimensions
Combining slots, tabs, holes and shafts
Calculating minimum and maximum gaps within the assembly
Projected tolerance zones for total runout as a factor
Determining if geometric tolerances are a factor

Analyzing an Assembly having:


o Threaded Fixed features
o Multiple geometric controls
o Projected tolerance zones
Gaps with and without perpendicularity as a factor
Calculating interference
Theoretically vs. Physically worst case possibilities
Applying assembly logic and Factoring in assembly conditions

Understanding Part Stacks:


Performing a single part analysis. The part consists of various controls such as:
o Two-single segment positional controls,
o Switching datum reference frames and accumulating geometric tolerances,
o Datum features at MMC (pattern shift),
o Profile tolerances, Flatness,
o Envelopes of perfect form at MMC,
o Creating envelopes of perfect orientation at MMC
o MIN and MAX axial separation
o Datum planes vs. datum features
