Tolerance in injection molding is the key to the quality of the final product. To stay within proper dimensions and avoid defects, we need to consider many factors, such as material selections, product design, or even tooling in the very early stage. <\/p>\n\n

General injection molding tolerances fall within \u00b10.1mm. However, for products requiring high precision, such as those used in medical facilities, tolerances can be as tight as \u00b10.005mm. The tighter the tolerances are, the more expensive the overall cost of manufacturing due to the complexity of tooling design and process control. <\/p>\n\n

In this article, we will look closely at what influences the margins of molded parts and the common tolerances that happen in practical scenarios. In the end, we\u2019ll also provide useful tips to help you design your products to reduce possible impact. <\/p>\n\n
