Zusatztext Praise for the First EditionWritten by one of the foremost authorities in the field! this reference presents proven and useful methods for determining whether selected dimensioning and tolerancing schemes will yield functional parts and assemblies. It also tells the most practical procedure to communicate the results.-Mechanical Engineering! Vol. 126! No. 11! Nov. 2004 Informationen zum Autor Bryan R. Fischer is owner of Advanced Dimensional Management LLC, which provides consulting and training in GD&T, tolerance analysis, dimensional management, 3D model-based engineering, and related fields, including 3D MBD and MBE, product documentation quality, and engineering standards. Mr. Fischer is recognized as a leading expert with more than 25 years of industrial experience in these areas. Having worked as a GD&T expert, tolerance analyst, dimensional management engineer, and design lead, he has also been a designer, checker, design drafter, and CAD systems programmer, as well as a trainer and consultant in the areas of GD&T, drawing quality, dimensional management and tolerance analysis. He trains and consults in many industries, both commercial and government, with companies ranging from very small to the largest multi-national corporations. He has consulted with inspection and CAD software developers to help them improve their implementations of GD&T, 3D PMI, and model-based product definition practices. He also works with companies around the world helping them to understand and implement 3D model-based product definition and model-based enterprise methods. Bryan has been active in the area of corporate, national, and international standards development and standards management throughout his career, and a longtime member of several standards development committees. He is a member of the American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), the American Society for Quality, and SAE International. He is also an ASME Certified Senior Level GD&T Professional. Klappentext Written by one of the foremost authorities in the field, this newly revised reference presents the necessary background and proven step-by-step procedures for solving both simple and complex tolerance analysis problems. Using the techniques described in this text, design engineers can ensure that parts and assemblies will satisfy their intended functions. In addition, manufacturing, inspection, assembly, and service personnel can use the methods discussed to troubleshoot designs, verify in-process steps will meet objectives, and find ways to improve performance and reduce costs. This new edition includes many updates and improvements to provide a clearer, easy-to-understand, comprehensive volume. Zusammenfassung Use Tolerance Analysis Techniques to Avoid Design, Quality, and Manufacturing Problems Before They Happen Often overlooked and misunderstood, tolerance analysis is a critical part of improving products and their design processes. Because all manufactured products are subject to variation, it is crucial that designers predict and understand how these changes can affect form, fit, and function of parts and assemblies—and then communicate their findings effectively. Written by one of the developers of ASME Y14.5 and other geometric dimension and tolerancing (GD&T) standards, Mechanical Tolerance Stackup and Analysis, Second Edition offers an overview of techniques used to assess and convey the cumulative effects of variation on the geometric relationship between part and assembly features. The book focuses on some key components: it explains often misunderstood sources of variation and how they contribute to this deviation in assembled products, as well as how to model that variation in a useful manner. New to the Second Edition: Explores ISO and ASME GD&T standards—including their...
