2.Production Drawing Tolerances

Process planners have to understand the functional requirements of the design and can suggest design changes that make production easy and economical.

2.1 Tolerancing in production
Any dimension and its surface finish are not achieved in one production operation. Therefore, each production operation are to be specified with a tolerance such that the sum of all the tolerance results in the tolerance specified for the component at the end of the  final operation.

2.1.1 Process to meet geometric tolerances

Causes of geometric deviations

1. Fixturing: Multiple fixturing increases deviations.
2. Machine accuracy and rigidity
3. Tool accuracy
4. Tool deflection
5. Cutting temperature
6. Vibrations in machine tool and cutting tool
7. Material heterogeneities
8. Kinematics

Hence careful choice and combination of machine tools, cutting conditions, tooling and fixtures and production operation level of tolerance strategies are required to achieve the tolerances specified in component drawing.

1.1 Dimensioning  from datum

For the dimensions of parts that would assemble, the dimensioning should originate at a datum. The datum is indicated in the drawing.

1.2 Redundant dimensioning

In a given direction, a surface should be indicated by one and only dimension.

1.3 Stackup of tolerances by arithmetic method

For examples in case of step turning with multiple steps, the interval tolerance of the result is equal to the sum of the tolerances of the components in length.

1.4 Geometric tolerances

The geometrical tolerances of form and positions are defined in the ISO standard for Tolerances for Form and Position (ISO Standard 111, 1983)

Terminology of Geometric Tolerances

Category                                     Characteristics

Form                                 Flatness

Orientation                        Perpendicularity

Location                            Position

Runout                              Circular Runout

Profile                                Profile of a line

1.5 Geometric tolerances interpretation

Hence careful choice and combination of machine tools, cutting conditions, tooling and fixtures and production operation level of tolerance strategies are required to achieve the tolerances specified in component drawing.



2.1.2 Production tolerancing - Feasibility

Halevi gave the example of set up with fixture repeatability of 0.1 mm and the machine accuracy of 0.02 mm. When the counterbore is made this machine and fixture, the length of the internal minor diameter will come 20 + or - 0.04.  It is acceptable because the required dimension is  20 + or - 0.1 mm.

The total length of the work piece is 70 mm, minor bore is 20 mm and counter bore length is 30 mm. So the length of the uncut portion is 20 mm and with this present errors it will come out to be 20 + or - 0.14. Acceptable because required dimension is 20 + or - 0.15.

But if machine accuracy is 0.03 mm, the resulting dimension tolerance will be 20 + or - 0.16. Not acceptable. Hence it is important to know the error quantities and see whether the machine and accessories in combination can produce the part to the specification or not.





2.2 Tolerances in forming operations


Halevi has given the example of a die working on a sheet metal blank.  He says errors or tolerances achieved are of three types.

1. Tool dependent dimensions.
2. non-tool-dependent and
3. non-tool dependent dimensions in the direction of the closing the tool (travel of the punch).

Machine accuracy is estimated by type three errors. Improvement of machine accuracy and jigs and fixtures will minimize type 2 errors. Tool accuracy has to be improved for type 1 errors.
