In the event that details regarding tolerancing are not provided (for example: when we receive only a solid model or a physical sample, an undimensioned or under-dimensioned print) these tolerances will be applied. EVS Metal may also specify that a quotation is based on these standards at the time of quote when tolerance on a print cannot be met with standard manufacturing methods. While this does not indicate the tightest manufacturing standards & tolerances that EVS can hold, it represents referenced industry standards achievable with our normal manufacturing processes. While the addition of secondary processes such as reaming, machining, hard tooling, etc. may improve the tolerances which can be held, they will impact cost. Any critical tolerances must be indicated as such by the customer upon placement of an order and will be evaluated by our Engineering Department for manufacturability.
Unless we at EVS receive specific instructions to the contrary, all dimensions/tolerances are to be applied before finishing.
