Next Available Class: April 23-25, 2024
- Target group: Production metrologists, production engineers, developers, design engineers, QA heads
- Prerequisites: None
Note: an AUKOM 2 certificate for production metrologists is recommended, but not required for participation. Furthermore, if you complete AUKOM GD&T and pass the AUKOM 1 and AUKOM 2 exams, you will earn a certificate qualifying you as an AUKOM Metrologist. - Learning goals: This GD&T training course provides in-depth knowledge on form and positional tolerances in accordance with ISO & ASME standards. This course is for advanced measuring technicians who work alongside other departments and must communicate design changes effectively. Attendees will gain an insight into the topic of form and positional tolerances. AUKOM training helps measuring technicians successfully implement the drawing specifications and minimize uncertainty in measurement. This course will also assist metrologists in effectively communicating with other departments and reducing conflict. Lastly, by taking our AUKOM GD&T course, it’s common to lower operating costs and reduce wasted materials.
- Course duration: 3 days
- Completion: Certificate only. There is no exam for AUKOM GD&T. Participants who have passed the AUKOM 1 exam and AUKOM 2 exam will receive certification as an AUKOM Metrologist upon completion of the AUKOM GD&T course.
- Cost: $1,375 per student
