TOLERANCE
TOLERANCE
(OP)
Learned ones,
I created half part of a symmetric solid and reflected it only to find some kind of overlapping of surfaces over the other.
I then went to the edges panel in Tools to correct t issue.
My doubt is: What is 'TOLERANCE'? I am aware that some numerical have to be given, but would like to know more about TOLERANCE before proceeding to give some values..
Thanks again.

RE: TOLERANCE
Thank you for replying. Could you please come up with some crystal clear answer for what is TOLERANCE?..few links related to my queries will also be sufficient enough for me to proceed.

However, I would suggest that you refrain from designing mechanical assemblies until you understand why you should know tolerancing.

RE: TOLERANCE
I doubt that tolerance is an issue here. Tolerances are for fabrication, not modeling. You have probably mirrored about the wrong object, or your centreing object is not centred. These are easy mistakes to make.
As noted above, this is a question for the appropriate CAD forum. Also as noted above, if you have to ask what tolerances are, you should not be doing mechanical design.
RE: TOLERANCE
Either way, as stated your question doesn't make a lot of sense in English, sorry.

RE: TOLERANCE
To answer the OP, NOTHING is perfect, even in the binary world of CAD models. You need to ask about the tolerance settings in your particular CAD system, as they do differ; I recommend reposting in the appropriate CAD forum.
