Communicating your tolerance capabilities to potential customers

“

- [Instructor] Once you understand the capabilities of your machinery, you need to decide what tolerances you want to offer as a standard service. Manufacturing parts with tolerances close to the limits of your machine's capabilities may result in a greater number of rejected parts, or may require more time-consuming work to verify that a part meets the customer's specifications. Ultimately, you may want to charge more for maintaining higher tolerances. Once you decide what tolerances you want to offer to your customers, listing that information on a website or in a design guide will provide a quick and effective means to share your standard tolerance information with your customers.
