Cylindricity is a geometric tolerance that measures how close an object conforms to a perfect cylinder shape, ensuring uniformity across its entire surface. It is crucial in precision engineering where deviations can affect the performance and fit of mechanical components.

Cylindricity

Geometric tolerance is a system used in engineering and manufacturing to specify the allowable variation in form, profile, orientation, location, and run-out of a part's features. It ensures that parts fit and function together correctly, even when there are slight deviations from the exact dimensions.

Precision engineering involves the design and production of components and systems with extremely tight tolerances and high accuracy, often at the micro or nano scale. It is critical in industries such as aerospace, electronics, and manufacturing, where even the smallest deviation can significantly impact performance and reliability.
