Summary

What will we learn in Chapter 4? We will learn about tolerancing and how

important this technique is to mass

production.

Key points

If a features size is toleranced, it is allowedto vary within a range of values or limits.

Tolerancing enables an engineer to design

interchangeable or replacement parts.

Tolerancing / Interchangeability

Tolerancing is dimensioning forinterchangeability.

What is interchangeability?

An interchangeable part is simply a mass

produced part (a replacement part).

How is a feature on an interchangeablepart dimensioned?

The feature is not dimensioned using asingle value, but a range of values.

You can choose a tolerance that specifies a

large or small variation.

Why do we want a parts size to becontrolled by two limits?

It is necessary because it is impossible to

manufacture parts without some variation.

The stated limits are a form of quality control.

Choosing a tolerance for your design.

Specify a tolerance with whatever degree of

accuracy that is required for the design towork properly.

Choose a tolerance that is not unnecessarily

accurate or excessively inaccurate.

Tolerancing Standards

Standards are needed to;

make it possible to manufacture parts at

different times and in different places thatstill assemble properly.

establish dimensional limits for parts that

are to be interchangeable.

1. Limit Dimensions

Limits are the maximum and minimumsize that a part can obtain and still

pass inspection.

For example, the diameter of a shaft might

be specified as follows.

around that basic size.

Inch Tolerances Definitions

Limits: The limits are the maximum andminimum size that the part is allowed to

be.

Basic Size: The basic size is the size

from which the limits are calculated.

It is common for both the hole and the shaftand is usually the closest fraction.

International tolerance grade number(IT#): The IT#s are a set of tolerances

that vary according to the basic size and

provide the same relative level of

accuracy within a given grade.

represents the IT#.

A smaller number provides a smallertolerance.

Tolerance zone: The fundamentaldeviation in combination with the IT#

defines the tolerance zone.

The IT# establishes the magnitude of thetolerance zone or the amount that the

and the basic shaftsystem.

Basic hole system: The basic holesystem is used when you want the basic

size to be attached to the hole dimension.

For example, if you want to tolerance a shaft

based on a hole produced by a standard

drill, reamer, broach, or another standard

tool.

Basic shaft system: The basic shaftsystem is used when you want the basic

size to be attached to the shaft dimension.

The tolerance between two features of apart depends on the number of controlling

dimensions.



94/122



The distance could be controlled by asingle dimension or multiple dimensions.



95/122



The maximum variation between twofeatures is equal to the sum of the

tolerances placed on the controlling

dimensions.

increases.
