Tolerance Allocation Methods for Designers ADCATS Report No. 99-6. Kenneth W. Chase Department of Mechanical engineering Brigham Young University 1999. ABSTRACT. Tolerance Allocation is a design tool. It provides a rational basis for assigning tolerances to dimensions. Several algorithms are described in this paper for performing Tolerance Allocation , which is defined as the re-distribution of the Tolerance budget within an assembly to reduce over-all cost of production, while meeting target levels for quality. The task of placing +/- tolerances on each dimension of a CAD model or set of engineering drawings may seem menial and of little consequence. However, it can have enormous impact on cost and quality.
