Short summary
This paper presents a concurrent tolerance design methodology for predicting the tolerance. This method integrates the product design with manufacturing and inspection to realize the balance of design tolerance, process tolerance, and cost. The proposed method was finally tested on the gap design between the taillight and bodyside of an automobile. The result shows the proposed approach improves design efficiency, shortens the development cycle, and reduces development costs.
