The tables below show the standard tolerances which we base our prices on. These are suitable for the vast majority of composite tooling applications. If your project requires molds manufactured to tighter tolerances than standard please let us know when placing your order and we will be happy to accommodate.
| Type | Tolerances | Measure Datum | Inspection Criteria | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| ⌓ | Surface Profile | ±0.2mm | Best fit to CAD data or specified datum | Points evenly distributed over surface with a minimum of 100 inspection points per m² of critical surface area. |
| ⌖ | Hole Location | ±0.1mm | Best fit to CAD data or specified datum |
100% inspection Hole center locations to be detailed on report discrete from other measurements |
| ⌀ | Hole Diameter | F8 | N/A |
100% inspection Hole diameters to be detailed on report as discrete geometric features |
