Which training class

We have money to send a person to training. Which class is the best bag for the buck.

GD&T for PCDMIS of 201/202 for PCDMIS?

On side note we have had to do a lot of explaining of GEOTOL to management and customers. Hexagon says that is all covered in the GD&T class.

  • It all depends on what you ultimately want to achieve. The 201 course will help you understand more advanced topics like best-fit / iterative alignments as well as introducing some more advanced probe management techniques like using auto-calibrate commands. The GD&T for PC-DMIS course focusses solely on dimensioning. It explains the differences between legacy, XactMeasure and geometric tolerance commands. It also talks about what limitations the older dimensioning methods have, whilst providing in depth knowledge on how the new GD&T library works. It covers both ASME Y14.5 and ISO 1101 but is structured in such a way that we can exclude information on either standard if it is not relevant to you - for example many US customers often choose to omit the ISO information.

    I would strongly recommend the GD&T for PC-DMIS course to EVERYONE, even those who feel they are already familiar with GD&T as it offers valuable insights that will help you to understand and get the best out of PC-DMIS when using the new Geometric Tolerance command.
