Precision Failure Signals

01

Datum drift

Stack-up error hides until assembly.

02

Thermal instability

Heat shifts dimensional truth.

03

Metrology gaps

Critical faces lack verification.

Why Precision Builds Fail

Precision breaks when physics is left unmanaged.

Failure Signals

Small drift becomes big failure in assembly.

Datum drift

Stack-up error hides until late assembly.

Fit fails

Thermal instability

Heat changes dimensions between stages.

Tolerance blown

Metrology gaps

Critical faces lack verification depth.

Proof missing

From Assumed Precision to Metrology-Locked Precision

Precision holds when metrology and thermal control are explicit.

Typical Precision Path

  • Input: tolerance target without metrology scope
  • Process: thermal drift untracked
  • Result: late assembly failure

Geppetto Managed Precision

  • Input: critical features tiered
  • Process: CMM + thermal control locked
  • Result: assembly-ready fit
