Design Specifications and Tolerance
- Develop from quest for production quality and
efficiency
- Early tolerances support designs basic
function
- Mass production brought interchangeability
- Integrate design and mfg tolerances

Worst-Case Methodology
- Extreme or most liberal condition of tolerance
buildup
- tolerances must be assigned to the
component parts of the mechanism in such a
manner that the probability that a mechanism
will not function is zero
