Verifying a component conforms to the dimension and tolerances specified by a design engineer is important. Dimensional inspection devices rely on a number of factors of which to use and lead to the correct equipment to use. Selecting the right dimensional measurement tool to produce the result you need is critical. When manufacturing high-precision parts …
Custom-manufactured components are defined by engineering drawings for consistent production. Drawings define the allowable tolerance of each dimension. Dimensional tolerances should be determined based on how the parts fit together and what the parts are intended to do. How much will a custom-manufactured component ultimately cost to produce? The answer depends on several factors. These …
