Comparison table of accuracy and parameters of each machining process (casting/cutting/gear machining, etc.)
Comparison table of process accuracy and parameters

The accuracy that can be achieved by various processing methods is summarized as follows (Note: The accuracy range is affected by processing conditions, materials and economy, the following is the typical economic accuracy):
turning
Economic accuracy: IT8~IT7 (fine car up to IT6~IT7)

Surface Roughness: Ra 1.6~0.8 μm (Fine Turning)

 

Milling

Economic accuracy: IT8~IT7

Surface Roughness: Ra 6.3~1.6 μm (Finish Milling)

Flatness tolerance: Fine milling can reach IT8 level

▶ Plane.pare

Economic accuracy: IT9~IT7

Surface roughness: Ra 6.3~1.6 μm

Straightness/flatness tolerance: fine planing up to IT8 level

 

▶Grinding.

Economic accuracy: IT8~IT5 (fine grinding IT6~IT7, fine grinding IT5~IT6)

Surface Roughness: Ra 1.25~0.16 μm (Fine Grinding)

Ultra-precision grinding: up to the nanometer level (10⁻¹~10³ nm)

 

drill

Economic Precision: IT11~IT12 (Coarse Drill)
