Dimensional Accuracy for Series QualityTolerances in Die CastingIn industrial applications, precise tolerances are a crucial factor for the fit and functional reliability of components. When optimally controlled, the die casting process allows for high dimensional accuracy – especially in large-scale production under consistent conditions. What Tolerances Are Realistic in Die Casting?Achievable tolerances in die casting depend on several factors, including:
Die casters typically refer to DIN EN ISO 8062-3, which defines general tolerance classes for castings. In zinc die casting, tolerances of ±0.03 mm are possible for small parts, while aluminum die casting commonly achieves ±0.1 mm - depending on wall thickness and part size. Overview of Tolerance ClassesTolerance Range Typical Material Example Deviation Note: The exact tolerance must always be evaluated on a case-by-case basis. Why Tolerances in Die Casting Matter
