Abstract
Quality of manufactured goods under mass production system depends largely upon accuracy rate of quality control. Tolerance analysis is a useful method to set up a guide for inspection of product. However it usually would happen that strict tolerance provoke very high manufacturing cost. It is the main concern of tolerance analysis to find optimal values of tolerance to satisfy both quality and cost. This paper presents three tolerance analysis methods and its corresponding results upon automobile steering system to analysis the merits and demerits of each method.
