Qmax Systems Mechanical Engg. Design Interview Questions and Answers

Q1. What is GD&T and it's importance
Ans. 
GD&T stands for Geometric Dimensioning and Tolerancing. It is a system for defining and communicating engineering tolerances.
• GD&T is a symbolic language used on engineering drawings to specify the allowable variations in form, size, orientation, and location of features.

• It helps to ensure that parts are manufactured correctly and fit together properly.

• GD&T is important for improving communication between designers, eng...read more

Q3. How do you give bending Allowances
Ans. 
Bending allowances are given to compensate for material stretching during bending process.
• Bending allowances are added to the flat pattern of a sheet metal part before bending.

• The amount of bending allowance depends on the material type, thickness, bend radius, and angle.

• Bending allowances are typically specified in a table or chart provided by the manufacturer.

• The bending allowance formula is: BA = (π/180) x R x (180 ...read more

Q6. How many symbols are there in GD and T
Ans. 
There are 14 symbols in GD&T (Geometric Dimensioning and Tolerancing).
• GD&T uses symbols to communicate design requirements and tolerances.

• These symbols are used to specify the shape, size, and orientation of features on a part.

• Some common symbols in GD&T include concentricity, perpendicularity, flatness, and position.

• Each symbol has a specific meaning and is used to ensure proper functionality and interchangeability of...read more

Q7. Why do we Go for Flat Process in Sheet Metal fabrication
Ans. 
Flat process is preferred in sheet metal fabrication for ease of manufacturing and cost-effectiveness.
• Flat process involves cutting and bending sheet metal in a single plane, reducing the need for complex tooling and machinery.

• It also allows for easier handling and transportation of the sheet metal.

• Flat process is more cost-effective than other processes like deep drawing or hydroforming.

• Examples of products made using...read more

Q8. How do you select a Flanges and where is it used
Ans. 
Flanges are selected based on factors like pressure rating, material compatibility, and application requirements.
• Flanges are selected based on the pressure rating required for the specific application.

• Material compatibility is crucial in selecting flanges to ensure they can withstand the intended environment.

• Application requirements such as temperature, fluid type, and pipe size also influence flange selection.

• Common t...read more

Q9. Why do use Tolerances in CAD drawings
Ans. 
Tolerances are used in CAD drawings to ensure that the manufactured part meets the required specifications.
• Tolerances help to control the variation in dimensions and ensure that the parts fit together properly.

• They also help to reduce manufacturing costs by allowing for a range of acceptable dimensions rather than requiring every part to be made to exact specifications.

• Tolerances can be specified for various dimensions...read more
