Introduction Dimensional tolerances are selected by the designer or purchaser to make sure that the part can perform its function reliably and fit into its designed location. Assigning dimensions to a part requires identifying the desired feature size. Tolerances communicate how much variation from the desired size can be tolerated. Overly stringent tolerances are costly and do not add value. They require added work to meet tolerances that may be beyond the process capability. Inadequate tolerances are a problem because parts may be able to meet the tolerance but fail to either fit or function in accordance with the. | STEEL CASTINGS HANDBOOK SUPPLEMENT 3 2003 DIMENSIONAL CAPABILITIES OF STEEL CASTINGS STEEL FOUNDERS SOCIETY OF AMERICA SFSA Supplement 3 DIMENSIONAL CAPABILITIES OF STEEL CASTINGS 1. Introduction Dimensional tolerances are selected by the designer or purchaser to make sure that the part can perform its function reliably and fit into its designed location. Assigning dimensions to a part requires identifying the desired feature size. Tolerances communicate how much variation from the desired size can be tolerated. Overly stringent tolerances are costly and do not add value. They require added work to meet tolerances that may be beyond the process capability. Inadequate tolerances are a problem because parts may be able to meet the tolerance but fail to either fit or function in accordance with the design. To assign dimensions and tolerances to a part that is produced as a casting involves consideration of function and fit of the finished part allowances for machining operations involved in producing the finished part and production requirements such as draft and taper. Allowances for castings and the major tolerance considerations in the production of parts as steel castings are presented below. Along with this information a set of tolerance grades is introduced to facilitate communication on tolerances. 2. Allowances The shapes of cast steel components reflect not only the functional requirements of the component but also manufacturability requirements dictated by the casting process. Castings shapes must incorporate the proper use of draft allowances for successful mold making and machining allowances for surfaces requiring more precision and better surface finishes than can be achieved in the as-cast conditions. Draft and machine finish allowance guidelines and practices are presented to assist in the specification of draft and machining allowances for castings. Similarly size or pattern allowances must be incorporated into the production of patterns and coreboxes
