When we see a tangible creation and our inquisitive nature crave to have touch and feel of the same, many questions hover our mind like what it is, what does it do and how it was made. All man-made creations which first get conceived in human mind pass through several processes and evaluation in order to be eventually ready for usage and application. The evaluation and reviews are required so that the final product which is a part of the creation, functions the same as it was intended to do. The analysis which could be limited to part level or system level gives us a foresight into any possibility of pre-production or pre-release failures which might be barriers in the success of the product. Tolerance stack up is one of such analysis approaches used today in product design to understand how imperfections in parts as they are manufactured, and later assembled as products, affect its capability to meet customer requirements.
