Opis

It is in general not possible to produce technical products having precisely predefined measures. Systematic and random deviations from nominal size cannot be avoided, and it is therefore necessary to define measurement tolerances. This book offers a comprehensive presentation of tolerance problems and their solution by statistical methods. All calculated solutions are presented in clear figure or graphical form. It is particularly appropriate for those working in the field of development and construction or in production and quality control, especially in mechanical engineering and related fields.
