Basics
- This page goes over Fits, Limits, and Tolerances, and the application of them in design
- Essentially nothing is perfect, and getting something closer to perfect is costly/time intensive (see degrees of flatness / Lapping and whatnot) so you define what is acceptable for the application (ie specific hole for a shaft, etc)
- By doing this ahead of time, you take the need for "fiddling" out of the assembly / iterative design process
- Press Fit is a common example
