CNC Machining Tolerances Explained

Tolerance is one of the biggest drivers of CNC machining cost. A drawing with unnecessarily tight tolerances can increase quotation price, inspection time and supplier risk without improving the actual product.

Use tight tolerances only on features that affect fit, function or assembly

We focus on clear drawings, realistic lead times, practical supplier selection and communication that overseas buyers can rely on.

General tolerances are often enough for non-critical surfaces
