Whether using injection molding, compression molding, or rotational molding, achieving high precision in plastics requires accounting for unique polymer characteristics like shrinkage, moisture absorption, and thermal expansion. 🛠️ The Purpose of ISO 20457
Understanding the ISO 20457 Tolerance Table The standard, which officially replaced the older German standard DIN 16742 , is the global benchmark for specifying dimensional and geometrical tolerances of plastic molded parts .
In the manufacturing of plastic parts, applying standard metal tolerances (like ISO 2768) is not practical. Plastics behave differently during and after cooling. iso 20457 tolerance table pdf
, which leads to unnecessarily expensive molds and high scrap rates.
