Tolerance Stack-up
The objective of Tolerance stack-up analysis is to find out
the maximum/minimum clearance/interference of
mating parts in an assembly.
Tolerance stack-
up analysis is to
find-out the
minimum and
maximum value
of G
Purpose
To ensure the proper functioning of the
product
Design verification
To understand where the design allows
freedom

Input for the Stack-up Analysis
Components involved in ASSEMBLY
All part drawings
Sequence of assembly
Calculation
The value of G can be calculated by the
formulae given below
G=L1-(L2+L3+L4+L5+L6)
General Procedure
Add the values of parts that are accommodating
the inner parts (L1) and subtract the values of the
parts inside (L2,L3,L4).
The min/max values can be obtained when the
Upper and Lower limit values are considered.
Consider all the possible combinations of
dimensions for making the minimum and
maximum values.
Consider the corner fillets and diametrical
difference of components also to get the exact
mating position.
