Geometrical Product Specification - Executive overview
What is it?
A half day overview of Geometrical Product
Specification (GPS) and the ISO system of standards that it is based
on.
This course explains how GPS is defined in collection of interlinked ISO standards, and provides an overview of the different elements of the system, including geometrical tolerancing and surface texture specifications.
The Executive Overview is appropriate for managers, supervisors, and decision makers, who need a broad-brushstrokes understanding of the GPS methodology and its implementation.
