For a good understanding of tolerance stack up. We suggest you first read this article on What are Limit, Fits, and Tolerance?

We suggest you read this article on Process Capability Analysis Cp and Cpk for better understanding on Statistical Tolerance Analysis.

How should we deal with uneven tolerances (e.g. +0.1/-0.3)? Do we “normalize” it to +0.2/-0.2 (& adjust the nominal value accordingly)?

Let’s consider an example of five different size disks with different tolerances stacked on one another. We will calculate the overall maximum and minimum total stacked disk height using Worst Case Tolerance Stackup Analysis method.

In this example, maximum and minimum disk stack-up height is calculated by adding nominal dimensions with upper and lower tolerance respectively.

Informative log Clears my all confusions of tolarrlence stack up analysis… Language used is very easy to understand and satal.

Can you provide a presentation or resources to guide in creating tol stack analysis stack diagrams, to include any assembly of 3 or more parts with a fixed fastener screw rectangular pattern? Simple disc stackup is clear but I am not clear how to handle more difficult aforementioned multipart ‘fixed fastener’ assy stack up.

Thanks Edward for your feedback. This is a linear tolerance calculator, that simply works by adding the tolerance. Here -ve sign shows the tolerance direction. So ideally output shall be irrespective of sign. So i agree with you and we will improve on this point. But at the same time, i believe it has no impact on end results as this is calculated based on cumulative values. We recommend you to also check our online tolerance calculator where we tried to over come the limitations of excel: https://www.smlease.com/entries/product-design/online-tolerance-stackup-calculator/

Your spreadsheet is incorrect. For – 1.05 +0/-.01, the two values that are calculated are -1.06 and -1.05. The two values should be -1.05 and -1.04.

I don’t understand the RSS scaling of the total tolerance band by 1/(2×3) to get the total standard deviation. If we assume the errors are uniform distributed – the standard deviation should = tolerance band/sqrt(12) = tolerance band/3.46. This is close to the factor of 3 used – but I don’t see where the additional factor of 2 comes in….

I’ve been told if there is a sequence of just 2 dimensions then RSS is not required. I can’t find where this rule originates. Can you confirm?

Production of closely mating parts without tolerances is economically unfeasible. Tight tolerances can result in an increased rejection rate and manufacturing cost. Whereas loose tolerances can affect product function. Therefore it is always recommended to define optimized tolerances. Part tolerance optimization increases the part tolerance band. It also helps in reducing part manufacturing costs.

Why do we need to determine the process capability index in the first place? Is the answer that first we need to determine the manufacturing process capability (e.g. 3 sigma) – and second we need to determine the process capability for the assembly “event” (that can differ from 3 sigma)?

In this example maximum and minimum disk stackup height is calculated by adding nominal dimension with upper and lower tolerance respectively considering required process capability value is 3σ.

Nice writeup. Please note that there is a typo for the 3 sigma area under the curve of the normal distribution bell curve. It should read 99.72% rather than 95.72%. Regards.

Similar to worst case tolerance analysis, the first step in RSS tolerance stackup analysis is to create the dimensional chain. It is used to determine the direction of tolerance. In the above example, all dimensions are in a positive direction.

In RSS, the tolerace band is reduced. How it will help the supplier to produce parts. reduced tolerance band is the constraint for supplier, right?

Standard deviation is calculated by considering manufacturing process is 3σ capable. Mathematically standard deviation is equal to two times of process capability because the process is distributed on both sides. Therefore standard deviation for 3σ process is given by:

If I calculate the total deviation (not std deviation) I get 1.4832… that is +- 0.74162 (the same as in your calculation). My formula that I used: (0,5+0,5)^2+(0,1+0,1)^2 .. (0,4+0,4)^2)^-0,5 ~ 1.48324.

The first step in doing tolerance stackup analysis is to create the dimensional chain. It is used to determine the direction of tolerance. In the above example, all dimensions are in a positive direction.

As you said, Mathematically standard deviation is equal to two times of process capability because the process is distributed on both sides. based on above, for ‘3 sigma’ the total tolerance of each dimension is divide by 6 (i.e. 2×3) to calculate standard deviation. but at the time of total tolerance zone calculation ‘sigma assembly’ multiplied by only 3 for ‘3 sigma’ capacity. my concern is, just like at the time of total tolerance calculation we divide each total dimension tolerance value by 6. like wise we need to multiply by 6 to ‘sigma assembly’ to get total tolerance zone. because process is distributed on both sides of mean value. please provide your feedback.

Various tolerance stack up analysis methods are used to calculate optimized tolerance values. Each method has its own advantages, limitation, and application. Out of these Worst Case and Statistical Tolerance Analysis methods are more popular. Let’s discuss these methods in detail.

Tolerance Stackup analysis is a design tool used to analyse and optimize product design for assembly. It is used to calculate the cumulative effects of part tolerances in an assembly. Therefore tolerance stackup analysis ensures smooth part assembly on the production floor. In this article, we will discuss the worst case and RSS methods to solve tolerance stack up problems.

Hello, I have the same question asked by Nagaraju. So how does the worst case analysis has disadvantage over RSS method? Compared to Worst case, in RSS, you allow some parts rejection. But what about the cost of those rejected parts? How exactly RSS method is advantageous over worst case?

You mentioned in your calculation the direction of the stack. if you have a 6th step, lets say an etching step, that removed a portion of the last disk, would you include the statistical tolerance calculation of that 6th subtractive step into the same way you did for the RSS of the first 5? or would you RSS the 5 additive steps and then get a tolerance analysis done, followed by an RSS of the 5 steps with the subtractive step?

In your bell curve normal distribution curve there is an error – for 6 sigma, instead of 99.72% you have marked 95.72%, and as a newbie I spent 20 minutes to re-affirm that… just wanted to let you know. Thanks for this article and calculator, it’s really helpful!

Worst Case tolerance stackup analysis method utilizes simple arithmetic (addition and subtraction) operations to calculate optimized tolerances. In this method, all dimensions are assumed at the extreme limit. For low production volumes, worst case tolerance analysis is recommended.

Total nominal disk thickness is calculated similarly to done during worst case tolerance stackup analysis by adding the nominal thickness of all disks. Therefore

in above formula denominator (6) defines the distribution of dimensions. Denominator “6” indicates process is 3σ capable with cpk value equal to 1. If your manufacturing process is 6σ capable value ‘6’ need to be changes to 12.

Tolerance stackup analysis is used to calculate optimized part tolerances. It can be done manually or using stackup analysis software.

I'm currently up for two dream jobs both of which allow me to do both machining and engineering (score). BUT they use nothing but metric.

In RSS tolerance band is not reduced, you actually allow some rejection compared to worst case tolerance. And the advantage of this allowable rejection can be given to supplier in term of tolerance.

One question is troubling me. “Standard deviation is calculated by considering manufacturing process is 3 sigma capable.” -> Std deviation = total tolerance/ (2×3). This one I understand.

Statistical tolerance analysis is based on the Bell curve and normal distribution. For example, when a thousand disks of the same size are manufactured. Disk thickness will vary from upper limit to lower limit. But all disks will not measure the same because their thickness will be distributed.

Yes; It wont help machining supplier ; However this may help to casting supplier in case wall thickness calculation. If there is a defect on casting surface and it could lead to reduction in wall thickness. Due to RSS method machining tolerance will be reduced and in result increase in wall thickness.
