Standard drawingtolerances

Fittings for a part that is welded have their own tolerance, whereas parts that are machined by a CNC machine, for example, will not have the same tolerances, because the fittings are not necessary with a bent part.

By working with Axenics from the start of your project, easy mistakes in tolerances can be avoided. Our team of product design experts specialize in helping customers in a variety of industries to go from the idea stage to an actual product.

Manufacturingtolerance standards

When considering a contract metal fabricator, tolerances should be at the top of your selection criteria. Axenics’ team of manufacturers is meticulous in achieving perfection when it comes to tolerances. Plus, by handing every aspect of your product manufacturing in-house, there is less opportunity for mistakes. Fewer hands, fewer mistakes.

We are often able to tackle vague concepts for our customers, but a challenge arises when we see differences in tolerance drawings. When working with engineers outside of Axenics, we sometimes experience the engineer not changing the tolerance when going from a machined part to a welded part – and there will be a difference in tolerance there that is not reflected in the computer-aided-design (CAD) drawing provided.

Outsourcing can be a cost-effective way to complete projects on time, and within budget — without adding staff, equipment or increasing facility space.

To reiterate, a simple — but potentially expensive — mistake, like differences in tolerance drawings, can be circumvented by working with a skilled product design team from start to finish. Something else to keep in mind is that we also have great relationships with our vendors, which helps us to solve problems like a difference in tolerances in a timely and economical way.

Collet fixtures are tools used in machining operations to hold and secure workpieces. As an example,the 5C collet system is a popular standard for holding round workpieces in a lathe, milling machine, or other machining equipment.

The engineering and design team at Axenics works with customers and prospects on their designs and automates processes on the production floor.

A 5C collet fixture typically consists of a base or body that mounts onto the machine’s spindle or worktable, and a mechanism for clamping and releasing the collet. The collet itself is a cylindrical sleeve with internal threads that match the external threads on the workpiece.

Why tolerance is importantinengineering

These are just a few examples of 5C collet fixtures. The specific type of fixture used will depend on the machining operation and the requirements of the workpiece being machined. For more information please visit the following page on our website: Collet Fixtures air and manual

What Is dimensional tolerance

Our clients see benefits by transitioning to complex assembly services, including significant cost savings and decreased lead times.

Tolerance is the acceptable range for a physical dimension, which is determined by the product designer based on form, fit and function of a part. At Axenics, we have tight tolerance expectations in order to deliver high-quality, safe products to our customers. Tolerances are pivotal in the manufacturing process because they will determine how well a part will fit in the final piece and how reliable the final product will be.

In the Axenics Blog, we provide unique insight regarding the contract manufacturing topics and concerns that many of you are asking about.

Working with clients for more than 35 years means we have pretty much seen it all. It’s not unusual to get what we call a “napkin drawing” for a potential product, one that lacks detail, measurements, etc. Our talented product design team is often able to take a simple drawing and work closely with the client to create a finished product that everyone can be proud of.

Axenics product engineering services staff is highly trained on AutoCAD and SolidWorks 3D product design software. Our team can work with your designers and engineers to ensure the proper tolerances are updated. This will save time and money by reducing inspection time and manufacturing do-overs.

Semiconductor manufacturing facilities often find themselves up against a number of operational challenges, some of which cause repercussions that are challenging to fix. One of these is the ability to move gas within a small space. On any given day, the industry...
