CETOL 6σ v12.0 tolerance analysis software is now directly integrated with NX. CETOL 6σ enables product development teams to understand the often-complex impact of dimensional and assembly variation ...

GD&T is an international design standard that uses 14 standard geometric tolerances to control the shape of features. GD&T emphasizes the fit, form, and function of a part by comparing the physical ...

In manufacturing, the devil is in the details—and the smallest oversight can lead to big headaches. Too often, it’s 4:30 p.m. on a Friday, you find out your trusted machinist is away on a fishing trip ...

One of the challenges facing precision manufacturers and their medical device manufacturing partners is the increasing feature complexity of tight-tolerance parts. These complex geometries can result ...

Geometric tolerance standards for precision-class tapered roller bearings (TRB) used in machine tool applications are controlled by the ISO and ABMA standards, and must be understood in order to ...

Editor's Note: An updated version of this information can be found here. What exactly is computer-numerical-controlled (CNC) machining? It’s a means to make parts by removing material via high-speed, ...

Geometric dimensioning and tolerancing (GD&T) is a symbolic language used on engineering drawings to specify features of a part, including the size, shape, form, and orientation. By implementing GD&T, ...
