Cad Dimensional Parts
Quickly and accurately, our precision solutions for CAD dimensional parts are manufactured to ensure and communicate mechanical part design intent and engineering tolerances. These solutions provide engineers and manufacturers with precise control over variations in the manufacturing process for their mechanical parts and components. Additionally, distinctive symbols and language are used in engineering 2D drawing prints and computer-generated 3D solid models to clearly describe the geometry and its permissible variations.
Tolerances
In the realm of precision engineering, achieving exceptional dimensional accuracy is paramount. At the core of our expertise lies the meticulous art of CAD/CAM design, ensuring high precision tolerances that meet the most demanding standards. Our proficiency in Geometric Dimensioning and Tolerancing (GD&T) allows us to define and attain unparalleled precision in part feature positioning, hole diameters, perpendicularity, cylindrical shapes, circularity, parallelism, flatness, and 3D surface profiles. Understanding the intricate balance between speed and precision, we recognize that tighter tolerances necessitate changes in the overall process and often result in increased cycle times. While we strive to deliver your parts as swiftly as possible, our priority is uncompromising quality and adherence to your specifications. Our commitment to excellence is evident in the fact that 96% of the parts we ship include some level of inspection reports, ensuring that every component meets your exacting standards.
Caddimensions Process
In the CADDimensions process, precision in CAD design is critical, especially for functional assemblies, multi-component products, or parts with complex conformity. All components must work seamlessly together, with all pertinent fits and features specified in a way that impacts the manufacturing process while ensuring functionality. Tightening tolerances by a factor of two can significantly increase costs due to longer production times, higher reject rates, and increased tooling expenses. Geometric Dimensioning and Tolerancing (GD&T) is a system that enables design engineers and internal inspectors to optimize functionality and keep costs low.
For low-to-mid-volume production runs and prototyping quantities, the ProtoEdge team collaborates with a diverse range of companies to enhance and accelerate GD&T component requirements for digital manufacturing processes. Dimensional tolerances reflect the approximate capabilities of a given technology and should be considered as a guide.
