Why Tight Tolerance Increases Cost

8/11/2026

Not every feature requires extreme precision.

Do you really need ±0 .01mm tolerance?

Not every feature requires extreme precision.

Overly tight tolerances can increase:

❌Machining time

❌Inspection time

❌Tool requirements

❌Manufacturing cost

A better approach:

Apply tight tolerance only where function requires it .

Smart tolerance design creates better products at lower cost .

Our engineers can help review your drawings before production.
