Abstract
The primary scope of tolerancing is to ensure functional requirements will be met by specifying geometrical tolerances. The duality principle, described within the ISO Geometrical Product Specification (GPS) standards, presents a perspective where the verification conceptually mirrors the specification. While this is a valuable model, further refinement is required to accommodate the different aims of inspection in support of the manufacturing process. This work aims to elaborate on the concept of a "geometrical verification specification" that is subordinate to the functional and/or manufacturing specifications. This verification specification may evolve as additional knowledge of the manufacturing process and inspection resources becomes available. A well-formed geometric verification specification should facilitate an appropriate inspection by any qualified operator, which in turn assures comparable measurement results across multiple instruments and facilities.
