Tolerance Control

We define tolerances based on functional requirements, assembly needs, and real-world use — not guesswork. When tighter tolerances are required, we have the machining capability and inspection control to deliver them.

Function Driven

Tolerances are defined by load, motion, and performance requirements — not uniformly applied.

Assembly Fit

Mating surfaces and critical interfaces receive higher precision control.

Material Behavior

Tolerance planning accounts for material properties and part geometry.

Cost-Efficient Precision

We avoid over-specification that increases cost without functional benefit.

Category Standard Precision Option Design Guidance
General CNC Features ±0.05 mm ±0.02 mm Use standard tolerance for non-functional or cosmetic areas to reduce cost
Assembly & Fit Features ±0.02 mm Up to ±0.01 mm Apply tighter tolerance only where parts mate or align
Functional / Moving Interfaces ±0.02 mm Up to ±0.01 mm Defined by motion type, load, wear, and lifetime requirements
Metal Parts (Aluminum, Steel) ±0.02–0.05 mm ±0.01 mm (feature-based) Metals offer stable accuracy; precision applied selectively
Engineering Plastics ±0.05–0.10 mm ~±0.03 mm Consider deformation, wall thickness, and thermal behavior
Thin Walls & Long Spans Case-dependent DFM-defined Geometry stability matters more than nominal tolerance

*Actual tolerances are defined during DFM review based on material, geometry, and functional requirements.

  • Metals typically allow tighter and more stable tolerances than plastics
  • Softer materials may deform under cutting forces, affecting final accuracy
  • Engineering plastics and composites require tolerance planning based on geometry and load

When CNC Machining Is the Right Manufacturing Choice

CNC machining is best applied when dimensional accuracy, material performance, and real-world
validation
matter more than tooling speed or unit cost.

At Yijiang, CNC machining is most often used to validate part performance, assembly fit, and
manufacturability before customers commit to molds or large-scale production.

CNC Machining Is a Strong Fit When You Need:

  • Functional prototypes that must withstand mechanical stress, heat, or assembly testing
  • Tight tolerances where small deviations affect performance or fit
  • Production-grade materials such as aluminum, stainless steel, or engineering plastics
  • Low to medium volumes where flexibility matters more than unit cost

Why Engineers Choose CNC Before Tooling:

01

Validate real material behavior before mold investment

02

Identify tolerance-sensitive features early

03

Reduce redesign risk in injection molding or die casting

04

Shorten overall product development cycles

Design Considerations for CNC Machining

Design Recommendations

  • Avoid deep cavities with small internal radii
  • Use standard hole sizes whenever possible
  • Maintain consistent wall thickness
  • Add chamfers instead of sharp internal corners

Limitations

  • Not cost-effective for very large production volumes
  • Complex internal structures may require secondary operations
