Credit(s): 3

This course provides in depth instruction in the processes of inspection of precision manufactured parts. Emphasis will be placed on the use of the surface plate, hand tools and manual inspection processes, also known as “Layout Inspection”. Participants demonstrate competence in how to measure work-piece features specified in accordance to ASME Y-14.5 Geometric Dimensioning and Tolerancing (GD&T). Indirect measurements that require review and use of basic geometry and trigonometry will be included along with direct measurements of part dimensions. Students should be familiar with basic blueprint reading with GD&T, and possess skills in using fundamental measuring tools, including the ruler, caliper, micrometer, indicator, and gage blocks.
