Define: tolerance and describe how it applies to objects created using additive manufacturing
Tolerance:
Tolerance is defined as the allowable deviation or the range of variation permitted in maintaining a
specified dimension in machining.
Additive Manufacturing includes 3D printing, Rapid prototyping and direct digital manufacturing (DDM).
Additive manufacturing offers many technical and economical benefits. In order to profit from these benefits,
it is necessary to consider the manufacturing limits and restrictions. These limits include geometrical accuracy.
To achieve Geometrical accuracy in additive manufacturing Dimensional Tolerance is must.
