• Key Concepts: 
  Geometric dimensioning and tolerance (GD&T) is a system of symbols used to define the size, shape, orientation, and location of a part or assembly. It is used in the design and manufacturing of products to ensure that components fit together correctly. GD&T is an important part of the CA-VE SAP Visual Enterprise component, which is a 3D visualization and collaboration platform for product design and engineering. 
  
  How to use it: 
  In CA-VE SAP Visual Enterprise, GD&T can be used to define the size, shape, orientation, and location of a part or assembly. This allows designers and engineers to create accurate 3D models that can be used for product development and manufacturing. GD&T can also be used to check for errors in the design process, ensuring that components fit together correctly. 
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When using GD&T in CA-VE SAP Visual Enterprise, it is important to understand the different symbols and how they are used. It is also important to understand how GD&T affects the accuracy of the 3D model. Finally, it is important to use GD&T in conjunction with other design tools such as CAD software to ensure accuracy.
