A Handbook for Geometrical Product Specification using ISO and ASME standards
Free Global Shipping
No minimum orderDescription
Geometrical tolerancing is used to specify and control the form, location and orientation of the features of components and manufactured parts. This book presents the state of the art of geometrical tolerancing, covers the latest ISO and ANSI/ASME standards and is a comprehensive reference and guide for all professional engineers, designers, CAD users, quality managers and anyone involved in the creation or interpretation of CAD plans or engineering designs and specifications.
Key Features
- For all design and manufacturing engineers working with these internationally required design standards
- Covers ISO and ANSI geometrical tolerance standards, including the 2005 revisions to the ISO standard
- Geometrical tolerancing is used in the preparation and interpretation of the design for any manufactured component or item: essential information for designers, engineers and CAD professionals
Readership
Design engineers, Mechanical Engineers, Metrologists, CAD/CAM practitioners, Production Engineers. Anyone involved in the specification, design or manufacture of any mechanical component or product. As a reference for Design engineering students, especially at FE (HND) level, but also undergraduates of design engineering (e.g., MEGR 7281/8281 Theory and Application of Computer-aided Tolerancing at University of North Carolina

It goes far beyond the obvious, but it is accessible!
I had already enjoyed the second edition of this book and bought this third edition in the pre-launch. I have no words, the book is very complete, covering the latest updates included in the ISO until 2019 and ASME Y 14.5 2018. In fact, the book goes beyond that, since the beginning, it clearly shows how we can replace all geometric characteristics with just two or three with emphasis in profile and position. Although written in an accessible language, I put this book at a higher level because it goes far beyond the obvious. I will definitely continue to be inspired by it for my GD&T and GPS classes.
