Abstract

Tolerances for dimensions have a great impact in manufacturing costs and quality. When tolerances for dimensions are strict the manufacturing costs increase. Today’s quality philosophy concentrates on search for excellence. This research objective was to determine the factors that influence the improvement of manufacturing practices of assemblies. Among the factors found are the assembly allowance or fit, the machining equipment and tools, the production system, the measurement equipment and methods, the environmental conditions of the process, the parts size and manipulation methods, the material and future use and process of the parts. The quality philosophy also was considered, in fact, it showed to have a great impact. The machine accuracy also had a great impact in achieving final dimensions.
