How does a design go from the computer screen to something you hold in your hand? Not being able to fully answer this question is a huge risk in manufacturing because . One of the important tools ...

Engineers who discount the importance of dimensional tolerance do so at their own risk. It’s like ignoring the odds in Vegas, and often with the same disappointing results. For instance, design a ...

H = all minus. For example, 25.40mm diameter bar to h9 = + Nil, -0.052mm j = equal. For example, 38.10mm hexagonal bar to j10 = + 0.050mm,-0.050mm k = all plus. For example, 160mm hot rolled bar to ...

Jaguar Land Rover North America has issued a recall comprising 485 examples of a raised air intake meant for the unibody Defender. More specifically, VPLEP0543 is the part number of said accessory, ...

The world’s fastest digital manufacturer of custom prototypes and low-volume production parts is helping to make life easier for design engineers by guaranteeing specific dimensional tolerances for ...

In manufacturing, the devil is in the details—and the smallest oversight can lead to big headaches. Too often, it’s 4:30 p.m. on a Friday, you find out your trusted machinist is away on a fishing trip ...

To design a reasonable dimensional tolerance of a transmission shaft, the higher product quality while lower manufacturing cost must be considered. This paper provides a mathematical model and a ...

In a perfect world, every medical device component would be manufactured to exact dimensional specifications without variation. Sadly, because the world is far from perfect, engineers design ...
