Our Milling Tolerance Standard
Our CNC milling service offers highly accurate and tightly precise milling. Please note that tolerance is affected by the type of material used along with the geometry of the part that is milled. For more details, consult the GB/T1804-2000(mm) below:
| Tolerance Lever | Overall Dimension Range | ||||||
| Specifications | <<3, >0.5 | <<6, >3 | <<30, >6 | <<120, >30 | <<400, >120 | <<1000, >400 | <<2000, >1000 |
| Tolerance Standard | |||||||
| F | ±0.05 | ±0.05 | ±0.1 | ±0.15 | ±0.2 | ±0.3 | ±0.5 |
| M | ±0.1 | ±0.1 | ±0.2 | ±10.3 | ±0.5 | ±0.8 | ±1.2 |
| C | ±0.2 | ±0.3 | ±0.5 | ±0.8 | ±1.2 | ±2 | ±3 |
| V | – | ±0.5 | ±1 | ±1.5 | ±2.5 | ±4 | ±6 |
In the default state, the products or parts we machine for customers are executed at the F level. In fact, this standard is not sufficient to reflect our strong machining capabilities, as we can control the minimum tolerance to 0.005mm.
