The Role of Tolerances in Design and How They Affect Cost

Metal fabrication tolerance is a matter of balance. When tolerances are excessively tight, production may slow down and result in more lost materials. Furthermore, it may require advanced machining practices and more steps, which results in higher costs. And when tolerances are too lenient, bad fit, assembly problems, and performance failures may set occur.

Why Fabrication Is Replacing Machining

In the world of manufacturing, fabrication is rapidly overtaking traditional machining as the preferred method for producing components across a wide range of industries. While machining has long been the go-to process for precision parts, advances in fabrication technology are making it the more cost-effective, scalable, and efficient choice. From infrastructure to mining and electronics, modern industry is recognizing the advantages of fabrication over machining. Here is why.
