In this video, Chris from Wayken Rapid Maker Channel talks about a smart way to save money without compromising on quality - tolerance relaxation. Tighter tolerances may seem like a good idea, but they can be costly and increase the likelihood of rejections. By loosening tolerances, you can improve quality and reduce manufacturing costs. Chris provides five methods to loosen tolerances, including re-evaluating functional requirements, working with suppliers and manufacturers, investing in better equipment and tools, optimizing part design, and testing tolerances under real-world conditions. Asking suppliers and manufacturers for information about tricky dimensions is also crucial to avoid costly rejections. By setting tolerances that control the size and ensuring that the part functions correctly, you can reduce manufacturing costs and improve quality.
