Frequently asked questions

Here are some common questions about our company.

Every industry uses GD&T tolerance to convey design knowledge to manufacturing based on component fixing, machining, and inspections so that engineers can grasp it simply.  

All industries employ GD&T, but the manufacturing sector is particularly affected. This implies that if you design or manufacture a component, it will be assembled into another part, therefore you need to be aware of where to make repairs because we don't receive the real product from design to manufacturing.
