Tolerance Stack-ups
Problems due to tolerance
stack-ups include:
• Failure to assemble
• Interference between parts
• Failure of parts to engage
• Failure to function as intended

Example: Assembly of
individual parts
Suppose we have two blocks, A and B that are to fit
into a slot in C, all with tolerances shown.
A±a
B±b Gap
C±c
Let’s look at the largest and smallest gap that
we could have.
L1±l1
H
L2±l2
The height can be found using geometry
(specifically, the Law of Cosines).
H2 = L12 + L22 - 2l1l2cosα
(where α is the angle between the
legs)
