Tolerance
Example: On Fits, Limits
and Tolerance
PRODUCTION ENGINEERING
NAME: ENROLLMENT
• Smooth Operation: Just like how a door should open and close smoothly, parts in machines need to
move smoothly too. Tolerance makes sure there's enough room for things to move without getting stuck or
jammed.
NEED
Quality Control: Tolerance helps us make sure every toy car we build is just as good as
the last one. By setting standards for how much things can vary, we ensure consistent quality.
Safety: If parts don't fit together correctly, it could cause accidents. Tolerance helps
prevent this by making sure everything works as it should, keeping people safe.
Saving Time and Money: If we didn't have tolerance, we'd spend a lot of time and
money trying to make everything absolutely perfect. Tolerance lets us find a balance between
perfection and practicality, saving us resources.
Application of Tolerance
Design and Engineering: Tolerance is crucial during the design phase of a product.
Engineers specify tolerances for various dimensions and features to ensure that the product
functions as intended and can be manufactured within feasible limits. Tolerance analysis
tools are used to optimize tolerances to meet performance requirements while minimizing
manufacturing costs.
Cost Optimization: Tolerance directly affects manufacturing costs. Tighter tolerances generally require more precise
manufacturing processes and tighter process controls, which can increase production costs. Balancing tolerance requirements with
cost considerations is essential for optimizing the overall manufacturing process and achieving the desired balance between quality
and affordability.
Tolerance
Fits
Types
Fits can be classified under the following
categories:
•1. Clearance fits
If max. size of subgroup is smaller than mini. Size
of hole
2. Transition fits
If tolerance of hole and shaft are overlapping so is
a transition fit.
3. Interference fits
If the shaft tolerance above the hole tolerance.
